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

In second grade, birthdays are so important to students. I am requesting some special birthday crowns, certificates and pencils to make each student’s birthday extra special! It’s also important to students to have their own special name tag on their desk, their own carpet dot to sit on and to see stickers on their hard work.

I am requesting new headphones for my students to use with their laptops.

We do not have a class set of working headphones and this is greatly needed especially for students to use our new program iReady. I am also requesting some Legos for students to use cooperatively during earned reward time, indoor recess, etc.

A few second grade favorite book titles are also being requested! Students love to read and are always appreciative of new books, especially favorites!

This is a mixture of needed items, but would be so appreciated! Thank you!
