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

We have just finished the first quarter of our new school year and it has been great! Lots of books are being read and our math brains are growing by the day! I am needing some extra seat sacks to help the kiddos store all their belongings.

The kids must be eating our supplies!

Our pencil bin is very low, and I don't even find them on the floor, so I don't know where they have gone! Our writing station is very loved, and our markers are getting dried out. The markers I am asking for will help keep the kiddos writing in style. We have some really fun holiday projects planned, and in the spring we are going to grow plants. The grow light will help us to start our plants indoors and get them growing before we can put them outside.
