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

Hello, in this project I am kindly requesting self-care items in the hygiene department for my 6th graders. I included items such as deodorants, small lotions, ChapStick, mints, shampoo, anti-freeze gel, nose strips, long feminine pads, feminine wet wipes, and acne patches. My students literally made a list and these are the items they are interested in.

At this age, students are still learning about basic hygiene and the items will allow my students to feel fresh and clean during the day.

I will be creating small bags with the various items so that all of my students can have the hygiene items they need.

These items will allow my students to refresh after P.E class and feel confident throughout the day. Thanks in advance for your support with making this project a possibility.
