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 project will benefit my students by providing an organized and bright classroom! Students love a classroom where they can feel at home, and I try my best to provide that for them! With your help I'll be able to add to our classroom some brightness with the bordettes and the "Better than Paper"! The whiteboards are a definite use for math and showing our strategies!! The clear shoeboxes are used for kiddos organization and so they can have their supplies in one place. We use the storage bins to add our journals or novels!! Please find it in your heart to help my class have a classroom full of bright colors and organization where their learning can be fun, inviting, and organized!!!

Thank you so much!!!
