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 love teaching elementary school students. This year I will be teaching a Kindergarten/ 1st grade split class. I would love the opportunity to provide my students with pencil boxes that are sturdy and last them the whole year. Last year I was able to provide my students with safety tags which were a huge help during emergency drills. It would help to replenish the refillable name tags so that the students names are visible.

The laminator is a staple as a classroom teacher to provide long lasting and reusable resources that would last more than a year.
