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’ve learned a lot from other teachers and I’ve gained a lot from other teachers including inheriting all the supplies that I’ve made do with for a very long time. However our pencil sharpener that sharpens all sizes of pencils bit the dust this month and it has been an interesting learning experience to have no sharpener in my room for the first time. I also am constantly borrowing markers from others or buying them myself.

My students deserve to have working devices in their classroom to help keep their pencils as sharp as they are.

Please consider donating to help us get a working pencil sharpener back!
