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.

Hello, I teach Kindergarten. In my school we are in need of teaching resources. In my class I like to promote a love for literacy that includes reading but writing about reading.

Supplies are limited. I believe that reading and writing go together, so I am in need of supplies to use in my writing center.

Your gift of writing supplies will help my students in my class by giving them tools they need to write. These writing tools will make my students excited about writing and learning.

My students need to be able to have a variety of writing tools to foster writing about what they have read as well as creative writing.
