Celebrating 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
Please help me provide pencils, pencil erasers and pencil cases for my students to use in our classroom. Some of my students are not able to purchase the essential school supplies, so these pencils will make them be able to have and use the essential items. Pencils are such a simple thing, but when a student doesn’t have them, then it can be a big deal that makes a productive learning environment hard to create. I also requested some funny pencils that we will save for prizes for great effort and excellent attitude.
