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.

We are amazing and brilliant Kindergartners. We live in a low income community but that has never stopped us from learning. Our classroom is a safe and comfortable space. We love coming to school every day to learn reading, writing, math, and a variety of other skills.

Sadly, we do not have enough white boards or any magnetic surfaces around our classroom. This prevents us from learning reading, writing, math, and sentence formations in new and exciting ways.

With a teaching and learning easel you can help us get our teacher will be able to lead whole class games and teach us effective lessons. It will also be a great learning literacy center. It is magnetic, so we will be able to build words, sentences, and number equations. We could make graphs and rhyming patterns in the pocket charts of this wonderful easel or write sentences on the primary writing board of the easel.

By contributing to this project you will make it possible for us to learn how to write our first complete sentences, read our first books, and solve our first math number problems.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
