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 have been in school for a few months now, however we are still in need of basic necessities such as glue, scissors, highlighters, and clipboards. These basic supplies will ensure that they are able to complete activities with proper tools as needed.

I do not want my students to have to worry about buying their own glue sticks or providing their own scissors.

I would like for everyone in my classroom to have the same supplies and not worry about having to ask their parents to purchase them. The highlighters and whiteboards will definitely be something that they use everyday to take notes and work in groups and hold discussions.

Please help me provide these basic tools for my students!
