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
I work in a Title I school and district, and my class is in need of the very basics school supplies. My students at the age of 7 go through the supplies very fast. In the beginning of the year only about half of the students brought school supplies.
The supplies I have picked out for my class are a class set of crayons, a crayon sharpener, pencil boxes, and class set of markers these items help them be able to express themselves creatively when they are doing their school work for throughout the day.
The last items I picked out were a first aid kit along with extra bandages. The students are always in need of bandages for minor cuts and scrapes.
