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

Our classroom could use a restock of basic classroom materials. paper, dry-erase markers, laminating pouches, and pencils. These are all frequently utilized daily for fine motor-related academic tasks. The jumbo pencils will help my students who have fine motor deficits be able to participate in writing tasks with their peers and help them be more independent with the skill.

I want my students to be able to focus on their work, not on whether their tools are working.

The hook-and-loop adhesive is considered a basic classroom necessity for our classroom! We utilize it as much as my students use picture symbols to communicate. These items use Velcro to stick to their communication books, hands-on reusable activities, and places in the classroom. The cleaning materials will help to keep our classroom clean, thus improving attendance!

Please help me restock our basic classroom supplies so our learning and growing can continue!
