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

My classroom printer needs ink and paper to print out student writing, books, comprehension quizzes and fluency passages for the students to practice reading.

I need to continue to print out student books, comprehension questions and reading fluency passages to help my students to improve their literacy skills.

I have a printer for my students; however, the ink is costly, and it is difficult for me to keep purchasing the ink. A limited amount of paper is provided by the school, once that is gone, there is no more.

Having ink for our classroom printer and paper will allow my students instant access to their writing assignments in printed form, which then can be used for peer editing and revising activities. I can also print books for them to practice reading along with comprehension questions. I can print reading fluency passages so that the students can practice their fluency with reading.
