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 am changing grade levels next year, and I'm so excited to learn and play with my new class of kindergarteners! I am looking to start my students off with everything they need to get their year started off on the right foot. Basic school supplies like pencils, scissors, crayons and glue will help them with their academic learning as well as the art projects that they love to do. Headphones are a must as we work on teaching and incorporating technology into our daily learning. My students will be so excited to have their own pencil box full of the supplies they need to be successful.
