ELA Everyday Necessities

Help me give my students everyday materials we use in our ELA classroom!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alderete's classroom raised $225

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

There are a few materials we need in the classroom that we use on a daily basis. Having these available makes all the difference! It would be very beneficial to have charging towers for my students' devices, especially since there is only so many outlets available in the room. Not only are there occasions where students forget to charge their devices, but they use them for majority of the school day. Other materials help maintain our classroom environment and allow us to stick to our routine without interruption, which is the biggest help!
