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

Please donate to my classroom. We would love to start off the school year with brand new school supplies! We are in need of basic classroom items. I am requesting a variety of items such as 2-pocket folders for writer's workshop, a classroom set of color pencils and markers for art, a set of whiteboards to show student thinking, and spiral notebooks for math!

These items are essential for my students to stay engaged and learn.

I usually pay for these items myself, which is extremely expensive. So any donation to my class will be much appreciated!
