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

Writing in my classroom is an everyday activity and task. We use our white dry erase boards and markers daily during phonics, writing, and math time. My kids prefer to use these writing supplies rather than paper and pencil. The only problem is that we soon run out of our marker inventory.

Low inventory shouldn't be why my students don't practice their daily writing and math.

They love learning and staying inspired to do well always. We are also requesting writing folders to store all of our important writing papers. The last item being requested are the face masks for my kids to help keep them safe and learning in school.

Thank you for taking the time to read our project and possibly donating to it. Wishing you a safe and healthy year.
