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 Students

Organization is a key to have a successful school year. My students are in need of seat sacks to help keep their materials organized.

I teach fourth grade on the Southwest side of Chicago.

My school is in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood. They are eager to be back in the classroom and geared up for a year of rigorous learning!

My Project

Storing personal belongings and school supplies is that much easier with a seat sack chair pocket. These chair pockets are high quality and durable with multiple compartments. This makes storing school supplies, completed work, and leveled readers a breeze! Instead of having my students put away their papers in a mailbox, I will have them store their things in the seat sack. These chair pockets make my transitions from activity to activity a breeze! Help my students stay organized with seat sacks .

Thank you for your support in purchasing the seat sacks for my 4th graders this year!!!
