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

The items that are on my list will allow for the new school year to start off on a smooth note. Supplies on this list will allow the students to start the year with new pencils, erasers, folders, notebooks, etc. It will also help us to keep our classroom clean as we enter cold and flu season. Hand sanitizer will allow for the students to remain germ free and help keep everyone in the classroom healthy!

All supplies listed above will allow for the students to have a successful school year.
