Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Summer is the perfect time to refresh and recover from the exhausting year for both teachers and students. This year I plan to apply this concept to my classroom with the items on this project.

With your donations towards getting whiteboard wallpapers, pencils, a guillotine trimmer, a laminator, etc.

I can help fix issues faced last year. Unfortunately, last school year my whiteboards left a heavy residue after erasing the marker which made the board hard to read. With the whiteboard wallpaper, I hope to overlay the board and make it usable again. The guillotine trimmer and laminator are to help me create cute and standard-based materials that add to my room's atmosphere that I've been creating since I started teaching. Not only will these donations help refresh my classroom, but also our mindset as I create a welcoming comfortable learning environment for my students.
