Help me give my students essential classroom basics that will support their learning, helping them stay focused and ready to tackle daily challenges in a bilingual setting.

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

Having the right tools can make all the difference in a student’s learning experience. My 3rd-grade dual language students are eager to grow as readers, writers, and problem-solvers, but they need essential supplies to help them succeed.

With these materials, my students will be able to stay organized, take notes, and complete assignments with confidence.

I am requesting Paper Mate Arrowhead Pink Pearl Cap Erasers, Post-it Flags Combo Pack, Mead Spiral Notebooks, Madisi Wood-Cased #2 HB Pencils, and Oxford Jr. and Composition Notebooks. These items will help my students develop strong writing skills, keep their work neat, and stay engaged in their daily lessons. Having access to these resources means they won’t have to worry about running out of materials throughout the year.

My students are hardworking, bilingual learners who are building a strong foundation for their future. By supporting this project, you are giving them the tools they need to stay motivated, organized, and ready to learn every day.
