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

It is well known that students learn best when their basic needs are met. The supplies requested in this project will not only allow me to meet those needs but to also motivate and incentivize student success.

Help us start the year off right!

We have late lunch and it can be tough for 2nd graders to focus when they are hungry. I have asked for snacks like Cheez-Its, granola bars, fruit snacks, Goldfish, and pretzels so that I can provide my students with an easy pick me up when needed.

I have also requested water bottles and vinyl. These will ensure my students have easy access to water throughout the day. The vinyl will help me label the bottle with each student's name.

Fidgets, light-up rings, suckers, Baby Bottle Tops, and Push Pops are also on the list. These will act as classroom prizes to motivate students as part of my classroom management system.

Lastly, I have asked for Command Hooks and Strips, Clorox Wipes, and dry-erase erasers. These will ensure we can get things hung up in our classroom as well as keep things clean to start the year.

I know these items will make such a difference to my students this year. Thank you for your consideration!
