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 would benefit from having these important items at the beginning of the new school year to ensure we are set up for success! The laminating sheets will support my class by allowing us to make additional visual supports for the classroom. The Play-Doh and paint dot markers allow our students to think creatively. The journals will help my students create fine motor journals. The snacks will help ensure my students are getting enough food to eat throughout the day to help them stay focused at school. My students learn best when our classroom has the materials we need easily accessible.

All the items being asked for are things that our classroom uses frequently and that we run out of easily.

Thank you for supporting our classroom!
