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 students are excited to be in 4th Grade this year! In order to keep everyone working and organized, I would like to provide them with the supplies they need for the year. We are asking for pencils, paper, watercolors, notebooks, index cards, tape, sticky notes, and Kleenex.

Your donation will provide my students with the classroom basics we need for this school year!

We will start off the school year by painting self-portraits that will hang throughout the school year. The notebooks will help us take notes in Math and Science. The index cards, sticky notes, and highlighters will help up stay focused during small group. Of course, Kleenex boxes are a must-have!
