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

As we get ready to start a new school year, we need to get ready some of the basic school supplies. I have selected some welcome back gifts, rewards, and nameplates to set up my students for success. Also, the pencils, composition books, and caddies among other supplies that I am requesting for my students are the basic materials they need to engage in learning. We really need your help in getting all these supplies ready for the first week of school. These supplies will be used on a daily basis by my students. For example, the organizing caddies will help my students so much in order to keep their supplies organized at each table.

I know how much my students will appreciate knowing they have their basic supplies to start the new school year!

My students will be able to focus on the academic material at hand with everything ready and set for a great school year. Thank you for supporting my classroom!
