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 Students

My transitional kindergarten class consists of younger kindergarten students.

Our Title I school is located in a low economic area.

One hundred percent of the students qualify for the free federal breakfast and lunch program. Most of my students come from families who do not speak English. My transitional kindergarten students are enthusiastic about learning and always try their best. I have seen their language, social and academic skills grow every day. They have shown me that they have the potential to exceed all expectations.

My Project

My students are beginning a new school year and they need to keep their writing tools separated from each other. The new pencil boxes with personalized labels will keep everyone's materials separated.

The disinfectant wipes and spray will be used to clean and disinfect toolboxes and students' desks.

My students will be required to wear face masks all day at school, and I will like to be able to provide a clean and fresh mask if they need to replace it.

Please support my classroom with this project. These materials will offer my new students a sanitized classroom.
