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

The resources and materials I am asking for will help ensure my students are engaged and do not have to worry about bringing any materials to class. This will ensure that they are prepared to learn and practice accountability in the classroom by maintaining their items neat and organized, keeping all notes together in their notebooks.

By having access to notebooks, paper, colored copies, staplers, markers, crayons, pens, pencils, students can keep their interactive notebooks as organized and engaging as they can create them.

Having easy access to organizational items in class will ensure that all students have all the adequate materials for their education. Materials will be used on a daily basis, and students will be able to work on their daily assignments and projects throughout the school year.
