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

Hi! I'd love to share some ideas for our writing center. Help us keep our ideas sharp and precise by adding materials to our classroom.

With your support, we can purchase a crayon sharpener to keep creativity flowing, letter rubber stamps and ink for spelling practice, playdough for hands-on creation, and pattern scissors to enhance fine motor skills.

These tools will inspire our young writers and empower them to express their ideas with confidence. Join us in making writing fun and effective. Every contribution will make a lasting impact on our students' learning journey.
