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

When scholars have all the basic necessary supplies to be successful, they can focus on their education more.

Some basic supplies that I have requested that my students need they daily life.

When students do not have access to the basic supplies like books, markers, and Post-Its, they begin to fall behind in completing their assignments or they do not come to school. Ensuring that students have access to the basic supplies for them to be successful in school should be a priority.

Many scholars have many other things to worry about and having the basic necessary supplies should not be one of them. Having access to the basic necessary supplies should be a top priority item on our list to help support the needs of our students.

These classroom supplies will be kept in the classroom and will be used during classroom instruction. It will help with students' basic learning needs as well as their creativity.

By having these basic classroom supplies, the students will have enough materials to take part in fun, hands-on, engaging lessons. Basic supplies are important and fundamental for the day to day function of the classroom.
