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 would like to get a head start and help me give my students the materials that they will need for the upcoming school. These are materials that we use in a regular day in our classroom. Our students use regularly pencils, dry erase markers, and white board erasers. Not only will these materials be used in the classroom but they will also be used at home. The folders and book baggies will serve as a way and form of communication for our families.

Students will be putting these materials to good use both at school and at home.

These materials are in constant use now, and will be much needed for our next batch of scholars.
