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

I am requesting markers, crayons and most importantly, kindergarten writing journals to help my Littles get excited about writing. The children just love to tell stories and they sure do have a lot to say.

Last year I recognized the need for these special books because the kinders will draw their stories first, then, as they develop their skills, they will write their stories in words.

Of course, crayons and markers will enhance their artistic endeavors. Thank you for choosing my project. I look forward to hearing their requests to "share."
