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

As a science teacher, I love giving students a variety of opportunities to learn. These classroom supplies allow students to express themselves as kids while at the same time still learning. The supplies include markers, crayons, colored pencils, and construction paper which will be used to complete classroom assignments, projects, and to showcase key concepts in science.

When given the right tools, it can electrify student creativity, engagement, and success.

Allowing students these classroom supplies allows kids to still be kids while enhancing learning.

These supplies will help replenish the lackluster supplies that are in my classroom currently. My students appreciate and desire an update to the current supplies. These supplies will not only be used for this current school year, but will be used to all future students in the upcoming years.
