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

First off, thank you for taking the time to read this. I teach at a Title I school and want to provide my students with the joy that can come from reading. Reading opens so many doors for these kids and provides an escape for others.

Reading CAN make a difference for these students.

I would like to provide more reading materials for these kids. Being a first year teacher, my goal is to really build my classroom library. I am also asking for LCD writing tablets which students will use to show their work, a wireless doorbell to help grab their attention, and classroom rules posters.

Thank you for your time and consideration. It means so much!

Ms. Martinez
