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

I am requesting organization materials. I would like to have a storage bins for each of my students. This would help us put their belonging away for a later time. Each student would have a drawer where they would keep thier work in. They would keep their writing pieces, math work, art projects, and assessments in. When parent conference comes, we would have all their papers organized. This would help me and the students, because they would be the ones filing their work in their drawer.

Organization is the key to a successful year!

I would also need storage bins for all the extra supplies in our classroom. This would help my students get whatever they need when ever they need it without a hassle because everything would be organized and labeled with our new label maker. Thank you for your time, support, and donation to public education.
