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

As an educator deeply committed to providing the best possible learning environment for my students, I am constantly seeking ways to inspire and motivate them. With this goal in mind, I have developed a project to provide bright and cheery school supplies for our students to use in the classroom and at home for homework.

By providing students with colorful and engaging school supplies, we can create an atmosphere that fosters creativity, organization, and enthusiasm for learning.

These supplies will not only enhance the visual appeal of our classrooms but also contribute to the overall well-being and academic success of our students.

The proposed supplies include colorful notebooks, bright paper for worksheets and crafting, decorative post-its for reading and math, and folders for homework assignments. These items will not only serve practical purposes but also allow students to express their individuality and personalize their learning experience.

Equity Focus

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
