Classroom Essentials!!

Help me give my students some of the essential materials they need for a successful year!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Carrillo's classroom raised $605

This project is fully funded

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

The requested materials are of urgent need for my kiddos’ learning.

Some of these include classroom basics like scissors, glue, copy paper, and others.

My students are constantly assembling projects and presentations that require the use of these materials. They are encouraged to use their creativity through them!

Also, the headphones requested are an essential key piece that our class has been missing for some time. We do not have fully functioning headphones for all kiddos in my class. This becomes at times a big obstacle for their learning, particularly for their literacy skills as they aren’t able to fully use all the resources their digital platform offers
