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

We need a fresh start to a new year while giving students the resources to use to enhance student instruction.

Providing relevant and engaging experiences in the library is important because it helps students enhance literacy and make connections to everyday life.

Supplying students with classroom supplies is essential to helping them be prepared for class. The pencils, pencil boxes, and bookmarks will give students opportunities to be prepared in the library and record their learning in the library. The other supplies will be used to help with our library self-checkout system to help students be responsible for checking out their books in the library.
