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

Hello All,

I am asking for a set of composition books to keep in my classroom for all of my students for the upcoming school year.

I teach at a Title I school with a huge demographic of emerging ELL students and these Comp books will allow them a small material to practice writing in my classroom each period that I have them. As we all know the best way to master a skill or content is to practice it and these books will allow every single one of my students to do so.

I thank you in advance for your kind donation to make this a possibility.
