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 this year are eager to learn and are always ready for the next assignment. These materials will help my scholars work on their organizational skills and help the classroom activities run smoothly. They will have a location to get pencils as needed and have individual sharpeners for colored pencils. The mesh bags will keep their puzzles, STEM building, math manipulatives and reading materials organized. The drawing pads will be an added bonus when illustrating their fiction and nonfiction stories. Our dry erasers over the years have disappeared and some are no longer working well. These magnetic erasers will help from them landing on the floor and help erase our boards with ease.
