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

No more excuses! As a teacher, I hear different and creative excuses as to why the homework is submitted incomplete. With this project, I want to eliminate all possible excuses and move on to obtain 100% homework from all of my students. All of my students come from low-income families and can not afford to buy binders, sheet protectors, pencil pouches, pencils, erasers, or any other school supplies. I want my students to come to class and be proud of their homework because it will be nice and neat instead of folded, wrinkled, or torn. The pencil pouches will help my students keep their small supplies (such as pencils, erasers, and highlighters) organized inside their homework folders. The sheet protectors are another important item that my students will use to protect important notes that are needed to be stored for a long period of time.
