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

A well-stocked classroom is the foundation for engaged and confident learners! My energetic and curious 2nd graders thrive when they have the right materials to express their creativity, organize their thoughts, and complete their work with pride. With your support, I can provide them with essential supplies to keep our learning environment running smoothly.

The items in this project will directly impact my students' daily learning.

The Sharpie markers and Paper Mate Flair pens will allow us to create colorful anchor charts and interactive lessons. A Scotch laminator and laminating pouches will help preserve learning materials for long-term use. The Mead spiral notebooks and Amazon Basics #2 pencils will give each student a dedicated space to write and grow as writers. The Elmer’s glue sticks, Crayola crayons, and stickers will enhance hands-on learning and encourage creativity. Lastly, the X-ACTO electric pencil sharpener will keep our tools ready to go!

My goal is to create a space where every child has what they need to learn, explore, and succeed. My students are hardworking, eager, and full of potential. Your generosity will help them build confidence and stay engaged every day.
