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 are so incredibly creative! The class I teach is project based, all about thinking outside the box, and tapping into our creative sides. My students are so bright and when we create, we want to be able to find all the materials quickly and easily to minimize class disruptions. We all can think back to our childhood and the fun projects we created in our classes. I want to be the teacher that my students remember, and I know I can and will be with the fun projects we create!

When our minds are calm, we can concentrate better, and when we concentrate better, we create better.

My students are amazing creators, learners, and leaders. We just need a little help on the organizational end of things! With your donations, my students will have bins and a label maker so that they will be able to find all the materials and tools they need. This ease will help them create better projects.

All children deserve new school supplies. All children deserve an organized classroom where they can learn and grow. Your generosity will help the students in my classroom community succeed. They will be proud of their work and will want to learn and create more!
