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

Basic school supplies are the backbone of any successful classroom. My students are in need of basic school supplies. These supplies play a crucial role in facilitating various educational activities. Notebooks and highlighters are essential for my students to take notes, complete assignments, and engage in independent activities. Similarly, markers, ink, and colored paper enable me to create visually stimulating materials that cater to diverse learning styles.

Access to basic school supplies is vital for achieving educational success.

For many students, especially those from low-income households, purchasing school supplies may pose a financial challenge. By ensuring that my classroom has essential materials, students will gain a sense of ownership and responsibility, encouraging them to take pride in their education.
