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

At the end of every school year, I clean out my classroom. Inevitably, there are items in need of replacement. This year, I need a few new chairs to accommodate a bigger class next year, basic supplies like Post-its, pencils, pens, whiteboard markers, and more. I also like to get a few extra supplies for individual students for those who can't afford the supply list. I also need a few extra copies of class books that have fallen apart over the years. Lastly, I want to replenish my class library with a few new books. Thank you for providing us with these needed classroom supplies that will be used to provide a positive learning environment for our students.
