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 a hardworking group of young people. We take colorful notes, engage in small groups and stations daily.

We are 3/4th of the way through the school year and our daily supplies have dwindled away or been used up!

We need pencils, highlighters, and colored pencils to continue taking eye catching notes and assignments.

Expo markers, expo erasers, page protectors are needed as our old ones have dried out or disappeared. We use these in collaborative groups and games.

Headphones are used daily for for stations and most of them have stopped working.

An electric stapler would be better than smashing the mechanical ones to fasten all our station papers together. The mechanical ones don't pass through all our papers!
