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

Pencils! Pencils! and more Pencils! Pencils are items that a classroom needs throughout he school year. We all know that they go missing throughout the day, anytime of the day. Pencils can get quite expensive for teachers to supply, so having a full supply at hand is always a plus. Having colored pencils and crayons are not only for coloring. When students can use different colors to differentiate their work, whether it is creating groups in math or annotating a text, it helps students understand their work, text or task. We thank you in advance for all your support.
