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 students love to work on the rug or in their flexible seating. But this can be difficult when their paper is constantly breaking.

These clip boards will be used in every subject in order for students to do their work wherever they are sitting.

I am also requesting pencils and erasers in this project. My students use pencils all day long and we are always running out of them. These are so important to use when we are learning because it allows students to practice what they are learning. Having these resources easily accessible to my students make learning more interactive for them.
