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

This project will provide students with basic school materials that every student needs and uses daily to succeed in school such as mechanical pencils, pencil leads, pens, erasers and highlighters. These supplies are always in high demand in my classroom. Providing students with basic supplies helps keep learning moving forward. I am requesting mechanical pencils since students love to write with them. Mechanical pencils are always a student's favorite because they do not need any sharpening. It is used daily for Scranton exams and daily writing. Students love pens and highlighters in a variety of colors for notetaking skill. They love using colorful writing supplies when taking notes for preparation of their tests and to highlight important information. These materials will be given to students to use at home and at school to ensure that their basic needs are provided for.Providing students with these basic supplies will help them keep learning moving forward and finish the school year successfully.

Supporting the most basic of school supply needs is extremely helpful in ensuring students have needed supplies.

These basic supplies is necessary to facilitate educational success!
