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

Inflation has families as well as school districts deciding what to pay for with little or no money for educational supplies.

Please help our classroom with supplies for many simply cannot afford supplies or rent for that matter.

These supplies will assist students with academic success through differentiated instruction, which helps meet a student’s individual learning style as well as skill level.

The poster boards will help students in both whole and group collaboration instruction. Highlighters are needed for annotation, critical reading, and note taking.

Your kindness is truly appreciated from both students as well as teachers.
