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 Students

This is an amazing group of students! They are compassionate and welcoming to everyone. My students have been able to create an incredible sense of community. They all come from different backgrounds and have made great bonds with each other.

This group of students is kind, generous and very helpful.

They are always eager to find out what new concepts they will be learning about. They are respectful and take into consideration the opinions of others. They are awesome kids!

My Project

The Expo Markers, whiteboard erasers, highlighters, and other supplies for this project will be used daily by my students. These are tools that will help them with their learning and can be used freely without worry that they will run out.

New school supplies make the beginning of the school yer exciting.

I want to make sure that I have everything that my students need for the school year ahead. The X-ACTO sharpener will ensure we always have sharp pencils for our sharp brains and won't ever have to stop a lesson to find a pencil that works! These supplies will help my classroom run smoothly from day one!
