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 truly wonderful kids who come to school on a mission to learn. They are enthusiastic, warm, hilarious, and brilliant. Without fail, they do their best to stretch their minds, make themselves proud, and help one another as they learn and grow.

There's no limit to what my kids can achieve with the right supplies in their hands.

Headphones ensure a quiet classroom environment and extra support during computer work time. Expo markers are used daily as kids practice spelling words and math problems on their personal white boards. My students love adding color and detail to their work with colored pencils, markers, and crayons. Items like classwork folders and pencil pouches keep us organized and moving efficiently throughout the school day.

In addition to student items, I am requesting cleaning and teacher supplies. Having tissues, disinfecting wipes, and hand sanitizer on hand keeps our space clean and safe. Band aids and ice packs mean learning doesn't have to stop for minor bumps and scrapes. Laminating pouches, storage bags, tape, and paper plates are all items that I used weekly throughout the year to assist with organization and instruction. Each of these materials was carefully chosen to maximize learning and our classroom environment.
