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 asking for these mobile storage carts and zipper pouches to help me make a more functional and organized space for my students to work in. I want to help them create independent work habits and I feel that starts with a well-organized space.

Some of the other materials, cardstock and laminating pouches, will help me to create that organized work space for the kids as well.

I have tools so that I can put things together and having a place to organize them and keep them locked up and safe will also be great. Velcro dots are for me to set up my calendar and laminating pouches are so I can create less waste. Thank you very much for looking at my project, I appreciate you!
