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 need crayons to be able to color their phonics pages and illustrate their writing while they work at centers independently. They need marker holders to have a place to store their markers and be easily accessible to them. The number stickers will my students identify their materials, as they will be used to label them with their assigned numbers.

My students need drawing and writing materials to help them unleash their creativity!

These materials will help my students learn independence, all while channeling their creativity and expressing themselves.
