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

Time flies when you are having fun, and in my classroom, learning is always fun! We are already halfway to the finish line but are more than halfway through our supplies.

The materials I am requesting will help us keep our focus on learning, not our dwindling supplies.

These supplies include glue sticks, Expo markers, pencils, and scissors. I am also requesting Toobaloo Auditory Feedback Phones to help increase our reading fluency and comprehension. Additionally, I am asking for cardstock to print durable mini anchor charts to help my students have reference materials. The lamination pouches I am requesting will help us keep these mini anchor charts protected so we can use them for years to come. Please help me give my students some much-needed supplies for our classroom so we can finish the year strong.
