Essential Supplies for English

Help me give my students all the essentials that are needed in order to be successful in the classroom. Last year students were in need of folders, working scissors, colored pencils and highlighters just to complete their work.

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

This past school year I have been struggling to provide basic essential supplies for my students. Next year, I want to be prepared so I don't need to constantly worry about supplies and focus on planning fun and interactive lessons. The folders will be used to help students organize their writing pieces and assignments. The highlighters will be used to highlight important information in the text, and colored pencils will be used to bring their interactive notebooks to life. The scissors will be used to create their interactive notebook for students to refer back to when needed. With your help, my students will get these much needed supplies.
