Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
Kindergarten is an awesome grade to teach! The students are like sponges coming into school in September. Their eagerness to learn is contagious. The students make me strive to be better all year long!
Writing is very hard for kindergarten students.
The primary composition notebooks are a great tool to help them overcome their fear of writing. The students draw their stories and then the sentence writing follows.
I use these composition notebooks during small group instruction. The students love their books and feel special because each student has their own!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
