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

Second Graders are ready to learn and need help with basic supplies .

Having the supplies students need throughout the year at hand is a huge help to ensure that all students are off to a great start in their journey of learning !

Students will use crayons, notebooks and colored papers to create and improve on their own writing and math work !

Chart papers will help kids be able to refer to lessons when they are struggling! Highlighters are a tool that children love and engage them in recognizing the sight words they are working on and interacting with their work.

Having crayons, pencils at hand takes the stress out of some students being without and helps all of us be ready to learn . We are also looking to keep a nice clean environment and keep those germs away with cleaning wipes!

I know we will appreciate any help given to make it easier to get off to a running start !
