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

Providing my students with the beginning of the school year supplies will help them be prepared and ready for a successful school year.

I ask for Dry Erase Boards (to practice the new vocabulary words), notebooks, pencils, crayons, erasers, literacy and math center supplies.

My students will have all the necessary supplies to create wonderful witting and reading projects. furthermore, it will help them to create math project and to improve their math skills.

These materials will also ensure that my students have access to materials that will help them achieve academically during the school year. They will be able to have all the necessary materials to create writing pieces. To practice sight words and expand their vocabulary. Furthermore, to create some arts ( crayons, color pencil, and glue sticks will be used for this activities) activities that will be incorporated on the reading and writing units.

Having these supplies will also provide an equable opportunity for all students to be successful and active learners.
