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

Our classroom is a vibrant and busy space where students are constantly reading, creating, and striving to do their best. To help support their learning and keep our space organized, we’re asking for a few key supplies: sturdy bins to organize our classroom library, colored pencils for group activities and creative assignments, and individual sets of colored pencils for students to use during testing. These materials will not only help us maintain a tidy and accessible learning environment, but also give students the tools they need to express themselves and stay focused during important assessments. Your support will directly impact their daily experience and success—thank you for investing in our students!
