Just Because They're Basics Doesn't Mean They Can't Be Fun!

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 students live in a very needy area of town, they are Latinos, and they are English Language Learners. Those three factors make it so they have a lot stacked against them from the start. However, they have even more going for them!
My students are talented, loving, creative, and energetic children who come to school eager to learn.
Every day I try my best to continue to foster their natural love of learning to help ensure that they graduate and grow into successful, productive members of society.
My Project
I am asking for a three-hole punch because the first one I bought myself 6 years ago has broken. This one is heavy duty so it should last a while.
Bright colors are a good contrast to our white walls, so students like them because they are different.
So I have chosen fun colors of card stock to keep things interesting when possible, but also I have some white, to keep them practical when necessary.
I am also asking for a heavy duty stapler that is easier for students to use than the "normal" kind, since it goes through the papers easier. Also, the automatic stapler will be helpful because it only requires students to focus on holding the papers, and not requiring two hands doing different things at once.
