Help me give my students journals, expo markers, paint, erasers and sketch books

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. C's classroom raised $584

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 would like to have journals for my students for a variety of writing assignments.

There are two kinds of journals, one for writing dictations and writing fluency, and one for responsive writing and note-taking.

I would also love to give them sketch books for using to make scientific observations and to draw vocabulary words related to our themes. In addition, I would love my students to have high quality erasers to help making precise drawings, , watercolor paint to enhance our observations with color, and expo markers to practice spelling and math.

My students are a part of a dual-immersion program, and need ample practice reading and writing in both languages.
