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

I teach Spanish grades 9-12 and even though I buy materials for my students, I always come short. Students are always in need of notebooks, pencils, erasers, pens, paper, and any other materials needed in the classroom. Even though I think I have plenty of them for the school year I always ran out. Somethings students approach me asking if I can let them borrow a pencil and I always end up giving it to them because I know they will not have one for their next class.

I also do projects that require the use of colored pencils and other art supplies that I have to provide for them.
