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

A great space to learn includes organization, tools and a sense of belonging. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

My students spend more time in the classroom that somewhere else, so I want to provide them of confort and show them that organization and a clean and nice space wold help them to be creative and focus.

My goal is that they create an habit to learn a gain knowledge. My students have many different backgrounds, they are multilingual students and I want them to feel include and welcome!
