Celebrating 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 an elementary school librarian. I requested the pencil sharpener first because mine recently broke. My students are constantly asking to sharpen their pencils and at the moment, we do not have a way to do that. I requested storage bins to store book holds so I can keep the library more organized for my students. Lastly, I requested paper because I only have access to one ream a month.
My students are special because they love visiting the library.
I want to make the library a safe and fun place for them. I also want to make sure they have everything they need to make sure their learning is a success. The use of paper worksheets, and sharpened pencils is a daily occurrence in the library.
By donating to this project, you will help ensure my students have access to all of the items that will help improve their learning and experience in the library. Thank you!
