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

Starting the year with the supplies needed helps students feel successful from the start. These supplies will give them the things they need to complete classwork and projects this year.

In the classroom students need to have the materials they need ready and organized.

This project helps them do just that by allowing them to each have their own supplies in their desks without worrying about if they can afford to bring all of the supplies needed. Having a good start to the year by feeling prepared sets the tone for the entire year.
