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

This school year I will be welcoming a new group of kindergartners. I am beyond excited to start this school year. Kindergartners are creative, curious, and eager to learn. They are filled with energy and kindness. I love teaching Kindergarten!

I have requested crayons, glue, educational literacy centers tailored to kindergartners, math educational games, folders, and pencil cases to provide organization.

The items that are included on the list are essential resources that I want to provide for my kindergartners. These items will help with classroom organization, decoration, and learning activities that are engaging.

Thank you very much for your generosity!
