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

My 7th grade students are working hard every single day to learn new mathematical skills and concepts. It is so essential that they have all the tools they can get to be successful. I would love for them to be able to use white boards and interactive math activities to help them learn in fun and interesting ways.

We thank you in advance for your generous contributions to help make fun learning possible!!

My Project

This will help students have the best possible educational experience with all these essential supplies in the classroom. I am a new teacher with very little supplies to provide them with right now. Anything you can donate will go a VERY long way.

We have so many different topics to learn about.

For example- the individual white boards, white board markers, and erasers will be used by all students to do numerous practice problems to demonstrate what they have learned and for me to work with them one on one. The markers, colored pencils, scissors, and paper will be used to do interactive activities.

Thank you so much in advance for your kindness and generosity!!
