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 Students

Do you know how boring it can be when the teacher asks you to edit your writing paper? Well, if we had exciting 'editing pens' that are only used during the editing process, the kids would be more motivated to get to that stage.

The fourth grade students in my class come from a rural section of Florida.

The love to write, they love to read and they try hard at their school work. They are always trying to find ways to make subjects more exciting. So, they came up with using 'editing pens' during writing. They can be very creative!

My Project

I have requested many fun and exciting pens from Inkology. They range from bobbleheads, sport themed, fuzzies, light-up pens, and many more. There are stages to the writing process. When the students get to the editing stage, they can use these fun pens! I feel it would motivate them more to get to the editing stage. I have also requested a bin for them to be stored and presented in. I believe that these would make the students even more excited to write every day.

Any donation to my project would be greatly appreciated.

We would use these pens for a long time, and I would keep them safe in my room in a bin. The kids would only use them during certain times, so they won't get destroyed in desks. These pens would bring excitement to writing again! I appreciate your interest in donating to my project.
