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

My students are amazing! They all come from different backgrounds and speak different languages at home. We all work together in our class to learn and create lasting friendships.

We need these basic supplies each year to stay organized and do our absolute best work to learn!

Glue sticks are an essential in our classroom. We practice our fine motor skills by cutting and gluing daily. The nametag supplies help me to make easy to read, durable nametags for students. We need markers to make bright and beautiful classroom posters. The Velcro dots help students easily make an organized line!
