Happy Writers

Help me give my students all the pencils, sharpeners and other items in this list, since they are happy writers, but need these tools to continue succeeding in class.

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 students are writers and continuously need writers tools to continue. We are writing short responses and essays. They run out of pencils fast and our two electric sharpeners broke. I also try to make the classroom more appealing and beautiful for them to like and enjoy but our windows need decorations. They also love stickers as rewards even though they are six graders this is one of the items I use to encourage them to do well.

Students love to use the flags to highlight meaningful and important information in their books or articles.
