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

I love teaching! Teaching has always been a gift for me. I was at a school for almost 10 years. I started off as a volunteer and applied to be a Paraprofessional. I have signed my first contract with a charter school and it's all up to me to furnish my first classroom. Everything listed will help me to create a fun classroom for my future students. Supplies will benefit the students when completing their work and also help me when creating our fun lessons. Thank you so much in advance, I appreciate any help.
