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

Although we are fortunate to get several resources provided by our district, there are additional resources we need to come up with for our kids.

Year after year, we make copies and bind booklets for our kids' use.

The OLD FASHIONED binding machine we have is so outdated, and kids find it difficult to flip pages back and forth. I look forward to creating more manageable resources for my classes. These state-of-the-art binding machine and combs will be used to create classroom resources for students that will enhance learning and will be used the entire year during our classroom instruction.
