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

Keeping our classroom organized helps us to utilize our supplies and keep our resources in good shape so they last longer. Storage is in short supply in my classroom, so bins, paper organizers and supply holders will help keep everything nice.

Kleenex and Lysol wipes help stop the spread of germs and make our classroom a safer place to learn.

Students go through many boxes of tissues each month and we need to have some on hand before cold season starts.

Help give my students basic supplies and resources to get prepared for the new school year so we can be successful in the classroom!
