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 teach Spanish 1 and 2, and even though technology is used daily and I try to save our planet by not using so much paper. My students really benefit from actual paperwork. This project is simple and very necessary. My high school students need paper to print. I am asking for white copy paper and some colored paper.

We will be using the paper to print educational materials including classroom assignments, homework, group activities, learning aides, and parent letters.

Paper is something very simple but very needed for our students. Our current supply is limited. Your contribution of paper to our classroom will ensure we have enough to print all year.
