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

My first graders are a diverse group of students who are eager to learn.

The materials and supplies that we are requesting will help us create a safe, clean, welcoming, inclusive, and resourceful classroom.

The manipulatives will be used to provide the students with extra support and different opportunities to learn.

The cleaning supplies will be used to keep our classroom clean.

Other supplies and materials will be used throughout the year to help support student learning and engagement.

The supplies and materials will help us create an inclusive environment for all learners.
