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

School supplies changes a student’s outlook about their learning. It gives them hope to move forward and achieve things. Students need to learn how to organize their things. A small cubby or some room in the desk will not help them organize their books and notebooks. The things we need for this school year are chair back buddy pockets, dry eraser markers, whiteboard, headset, lined sticky flip chart paper, gummy bears to receive as a reward and also composition book.

Our educational journey begins on August 12,2024.

We hope you will be able to fulfill our needs that we will be using everyday for 10 months. All these things will help us learn effectively and it will make a big difference in our learning.
