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

My school is a Title I school with students all who lack basic supplies that they needs let alone anything extra. The boards, erasers and markers create a fun and interactive learning environment. The refillable markers also allow us to create less waste. The earbuds allow them to access the materials on the computer as they typically do no have them since this is now a basic need in the classroom

This project allows me to provide my students with some basic needs as well as create a fun and interactive learning environment.

Any support you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
