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 in need of some basic materials to help them succeed in their learning. Many are coming to school with only one pen or nothing to write with. I would like to provide my students with the supplies needed to complete their work in style. I would like my students to start the new school year with a positive look on learning. Having these supplies available to them will be a great incentive for them to do their work.

Basic supplies are the key to success in any classroom!

The tape, pencils, pens, loose leaf, and laminating pouches are supplies that will be the key to bringing success in the classroom. It will be so exciting for students to have these supplies available to them in the classroom.

Another key to my students' success is having snacks ready for them in the classroom. The healthy snacks is also another way to teach my students how to eat in a healthy way while giving them a boost throughout the day.
