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 are hard working and eager to learn new things. Currently for our Pre-Calculus and AP Calculus classes, I print the notes out for my students and have them organize them on their own. I have noticed that students misplace the notes and when they need them, they can't find them.

The binding coils and the covers I have requested will enable me to create booklets for my students to use to keep their notes organized so they won't misplace them.

The donations to this project will help my students have their notes together in one booklet. Having the booklets with their math notes will help my students stay organized so that they can locate their notes when they need them to study.

I already have the binding machine that I will use to bind student notes to create the booklets, I just need to get the coils and the booklet covers so that I can put the booklets together.

I type all their math notes, so having the supplies to make the booklets will be very useful. I hope you can support my project so that I can make this a reality. Thank you!
