Lamination, Cardstock and a Thermometer!

Help me give my students an alphabet book they can keep remembering their alphabet and with a lot of students getting sick the thermometer will be very helpful in our classroom.

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

I created this Donorchoose project to ask for help getting a classroom thermometer for our students just in case. Also, I started creating alphabet handprint craft books with my students to gift their parents at the end of the year. I have run out of cardstock as well as lamination sheets, so I am able to complete the book for them to have as a memory of PreK 4 but also for them to continue practicing their letters in the alphabet.

My students and I would be grateful for any donations to help us achieve our goals as we near the end of the school year and prepare for a new one!
