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 love how curious, creative, and hardworking my students are. They come to class each day eager to learn and express themselves, and I want to give them the tools they need to thrive. The dry erase board erasers will help us make the most of our whiteboard activities, allowing for quick corrections and interactive lessons. The markers and colored pencils will spark their creativity in group projects and individual work, while the mechanical pencils, erasers, and classic Ticonderogas will ensure they’re always prepared to write, draw, and explore new ideas. These supplies may seem simple, but they make a big difference in helping my students feel confident and excited to learn.

The goal of this project is to provide my students with the basic tools they need to fully engage in daily classroom activities.

I love how my students bring energy, imagination, and determination to everything they do. By supplying them with quality pencils, erasers, markers, and dry erase materials, we can create a learning environment where they feel prepared, confident, and encouraged to participate. These resources will help them stay organized, express their ideas creatively, and build essential writing and problem-solving skills throughout the school year.
