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

My students are resilient. Despite all odds, my students continue to navigate this unprecedented year with optimism, determination, and grace. These classroom supplies will help organize our inventory and replenish our lost stock.

With these new supplies, my students will be equipped with the tools needed to showcase their learning.

In the classroom, these materials will assist students in navigating the rest of the school year. Our Writer's Workshop will flow easily when students have access to pencils and a pencil sharpener. In addition, our extension activities will now have the option to use construction paper- a product not usually easily accessible. These supplies will help organize our classroom and provide students with the tools needed for the learning to come.
