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 Students

I have a wonderful group of energetic students who are full of life. Every day, they work very hard to reach their goals.

My students come from different backgrounds in a Title I school located in South Central Los Angeles.

More than half of my students are from low-income households. My classroom is a melting pot of different cultures. My students are eager to learn and be creative every day. They are sweet, respectful, responsible, kind, happy, and curious students who love to explore the endless possibilities in our classroom. They are amazing kids who deserve the best education. I feel blessed to teach such an amazing group of students. I feel very proud of my students working very hard and trying their best everyday.

My Project

During this difficult time, my wish is to make distance learning a little better and fun for my students.

My project includes learning tools that my students could use during distance learning that will allow them to use their creativity, stay engaged and keep learning.

My little learners LOVE to learn and create. They have been working and trying really hard this school year. I feel very proud of their hard work and for making smart choices everyday.

This year has been a difficult one for everyone, so I want to make sure my students end the year on a joyous note.

I am requesting basic school supplies to create STEM kits for my students such as, books, paint, paper, crafts and glue so they can learn, create and continue learning during the holidays.

Thank you in advance for providing my students with the essential materials to get them prepared for success and making them happy little learners.

Your kind donations will make a tremendous difference in all of my students' academic lives. Thank you again for spreading kindness in our classroom during these difficult times.
