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

This project is to provide colored paper that students can have access to. There are numerous permission slips, homework, general information, and other various important information that gets sent home on a weekly basis. By having colored paper, students are able to quickly access the proper paper needed for each subject/need.

Every week, students go home with countless papers.

Providing colored paper will help organize students by allowing them to physically see which paper is which.

Students will use the paper for homework, permission slips, organizing notebooks, and other various skills to enhance learning in the classroom. Paper in the classroom is the building block for learning, and paper in the classroom is 100% student accessible and encouraged to use.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
