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

My students are curious, kind, and come to school ready to learn. Each year we review our supply list and try to keep the list affordable for families. Many students bring supplies but having some extra supplies for students who do not will enable everyone to have the necessary items in class. Binders are used to collect artwork throughout the year and used a portfolio. The past two years have proved to be interesting and forced us to become creative in providing students with the supplies needed. I am hoping to be able to provide some assistance to families and alleviate some of the stress of back-to-school shopping as sending your little one off to school for the first time is stressful enough.

We use lots of tape, Chlorox wipes, Magic Erasers, Ziplock Bags, lamination sleeves, and Velcro in PreK.

Having some to start the year would be fantastic. Providing extra water bottles for students to take outside to hydrate is necessary in the Florida heat. Students come to school in uniforms. Often it is costly to have extra sets of uniform shorts as a extra clothes to leave at school. Extra sets of shorts and underwear will help students remain in the classroom without going to the clinic to see if they have small enough sizes and more time on task. We use wipe off boards, but even the small ones are too large for our little ones. Having Double-Sided Magnetic Write & Wipe Mini Boards will allow our little ones the ability to have appropriately sized materials.
