Help me give my students the materials and energy they need to succeed in school.

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

When it comes to students they definitely require a lot of materials to encourage them to keep working hard now that the end of the school year approaches. Giving my students different kinds of snacks will help them keep their brains awake and stomachs full whilst still learning.

Headphones greatly benefit the students when working on edpuzzles, listening to music while doing work, and overall giving them their own space to reflect, and be great without the extra noise and distractions.

Using mesh bags teaches responsibility and organization of classroom materials.

I know the kids will be so grateful, and overjoyed to have more materials and snacks in the class.
