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

We have a variety of fun and engaging learning activities we would like to do with the students in the new year, unfortunately, we will not be able to do them unless we have access to more ink, that is why I am requesting ink for our classroom so our classroom supply can be replenished and we can get back to what we do best, which is teaching, learning and having fun!

This upcoming "new" year we are focusing on small group activities and school/home engagement, so our students learning can be extended at home with our students' families!

That is why I am requesting ink, so we can print out and laminate file folder activities, tracing activities, and send home important information pertaining to our wonderful classroom!
