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 requesting resources for notebooks, dry erase sleeves, and a durable school bag to support my students' learning and organization. In my classroom, students begin each day with Do Now journaling, using notebooks to reflect on the day's topic and develop their writing and critical thinking skills. These same notebooks also serve as a valuable tool for note-taking, helping students engage more deeply with class discussions. The dry erase sleeves provide a reusable and interactive way for students to complete classwork, encouraging participation while reducing paper waste. By incorporating these materials, I aim to create a more engaging and sustainable learning environment that fosters student success.Additionally, a sturdy school bag would allow me to efficiently transport instructional materials between home and the two classrooms I teach in. Carrying essential supplies such as graded work, lesson materials, and teaching resources is a daily necessity, and a reliable bag would help me stay organized and prepared for my students.

Your support in funding these materials would greatly enhance both student learning and classroom efficiency.

Thank you for considering my request and for your commitment to supporting education.
