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

Help my students with creating projects on their chromebooks and on paper! The items will help level the playing field for my students and their families. They will be used at a Title 1 school where some families may struggle to afford supplies. Things like paper, pencils, highlighters, and earbuds never seem to last long in a classroom. Students go through them frequently and they need to be replaced/replenished.

By donating to our project, you will help make sure all of my students have supplies they need to be successful.

The pencils, paper, and stapler will be used to help students with their writing and organizing their thoughts. They will be used with every subject. The dry erase markers will be used with our dry erase boards for collaboration and even team games. The colored pencils will be used mostly for editing writing and studying content material. The pencil sharpeners will be used to keep every pencil in the room ready to write!
