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

My students are all autonomous and eager to learn. I am so excited to see all of my students receive their back-to-school goodies.

Not only will they be getting their necessary supplies, but they will also be getting some extras.

My students will be receiving notebooks for their interactive notebooks; their whiteboard sheets and markers. They will also be receiving their own markers, watercolors, highlighters, and pencil sharpeners.

My students are still not sharing supplies so this will allow them all to have the necessary supplies they need to have a successful year. The erasers will allow them to have fun as they are learning. The clipboards will allow my student to work from anywhere around the room. They will use the headphones to help them concentrate during quiet time during the school year.

My students will feel motivated and eager to start off their fourth-grade year with all of these wonderful supplies. They deserve this plus more!
