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

I have the best students! They are eager to learn and always try their best. This is why I want to make sure they have all the necessary materials they need.

Having everyday essentials, such as paper, pencils, erasers, and markers will ensure that my students have all the materials they need to do they best they can.

Students use them everyday and we can always use more. I like to place the materials in a table basket so that the students can access them whenever they need. However, this means that they also go quickly. Please consider helping my students have all the materials they need to learn and continue growing in the classroom.
