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 kids need the supplies that any child needs to start their school year. The school district has limited funds and these items will not be provided next year! With pencils and paper we can continue to write our amazing stories and essays. With our sharpeners we can keep our pencils in tip top shape! With our glue we can create art, sort and glue sentences/images, and just do everything that makes school enriching. The construction paper will allow us to do art projects or fold paper to make fraction models. Hey! It's a classroom! This is the bare minimum, and we need your help this time. Thank you!
