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

Right now, my students don't have all the basic school supplies that they need to be successful and ready to do their classroom work. Right now, they are having to share and that delays them in getting their schoolwork completed in a timely manner. My goal is that every student will have the basic school supplies that they need to use in my classroom. My students are hardworking but have to wait to borrow from another student. They don't need to wait; they need the supplies now to be successful in their schoolwork.
