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 am incredibly lucky to teach the most wonderful group of fourth grade students who are smart, inquisitive, kind, helpful and always ready to learn.

Unfortunately, some of our basic supplies have run out like pens, pencils, erasers and crayons.

In order for us to continue to work hard and have a great year, we need to replenish those items. This project would allow my students the opportunity to get brand new sharpened pencils and erasers that they can use for their difficult math word problems. The crayons will allow them to add color to many of our classwork projects while the red pens will help us when we proofread and edit our amazing writing pieces.
