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 have a wonderful group of young students at my kindergarten who are incredibly eager to learn. Providing them with suitable storage for their materials, including manipulatives, journals, and textbooks, would significantly enhance their learning experience. These storage boxes and book bins will help them stay organized and take good care of their materials. Additionally, having pencil and color pencil sharpeners readily available will greatly assist my students in expressing their ideas and presenting their work.

With these new primary journals and laminating papers, my students will be able to showcase their growth.

The primary journals will enable our students to track their progress and development, while the laminating paper is essential for preserving our educational materials while the students are engaged in their learning activities. Your support in meeting these needs is immensely appreciated.
