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

My students love to write. We go through so many pencils, erasers, and dry erase markers in a year that I would like to have more materials to keep them motivated.

Students love a new writing tool when they are mastering the skill of writing different writing genres.

I would like to provide my students with some motivation and new materials to help them keep motivated when it comes to writing.

I love to have a writing center with everything sharpened and ready to go. Along with that, it is great to have white board materials for students to use.
