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 a 7th & 8th Mathematics teacher in a Dual Language school. The supplies I am requesting will help my student body improve their performance in this subject. The headphones are a much needed tool, because my school is incorporating many new interactive Technology programs that require headphones. The other supplies (pencils sharpeners, pencils, dry erase markers, and coordinate plane graphs) will be beneficial when we are not using the computers in class. Thank you very much for your help in helping my students succeed in the classroom. THANKS!
