Celebrating 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 vibrant and eager dual language 2nd graders are the heart of our classroom. They come to school each day, excited to learn and explore new concepts in both English and Spanish. To nurture their curiosity and ensure a clean, organized, and creative learning environment, I need your help in providing essential classroom supplies.
My goal is to equip my students with the necessary supplies to enhance their learning experience, keep them engaged, and help them feel proud of their work.
The items I'm requesting, like the X-ACTO Pro Electric Crayon Sharpener and EXPO Low Odor Dry Erase Markers, will keep our classroom running smoothly, enabling students to focus on their learning rather than on broken pencils or dry markers. Germ-X Hand Sanitizer and Clorox Disinfecting Wipes will help us maintain a clean and healthy space, reducing the risk of illness. Tools like the Mead Spiral Notebooks and Crayola Crayon Tub will unleash their creativity and support their writing and drawing projects.
These young scholars are special because they are mastering two languages simultaneously and growing into future leaders who can communicate across cultures. Your support will make all the difference!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
