Help me give my students a space to create a dynamic and inspiring classroom environment that supports the development of critical thinking and historical inquiry through enhanced DBQ instruction.

Celebrating 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
Our classroom is on a mission to become a more dynamic, engaging, and supportive space for historical inquiry, and with your help, we can make that vision a reality.
Project Overview: Our goal is to create a classroom that not only fosters comfort and collaboration but also integrates hands-on learning techniques to elevate our DBQ (Document-Based Question) instruction.
To do so, we are seeking donations of key supplies that will help our students engage more deeply with history and develop the critical thinking skills that are essential for success in both academic and real-world settings.
We are committed to creating a space where students not only engage with history but also develop the skills needed to analyze, critique, and communicate their understanding. With your support, we can transform our classroom into an inspiring, hands-on environment that makes history come to life!
Thank you for considering this request. We are grateful for any support you are able to offer, whether it be through donating materials or simply sharing this need with others who may be interested in contributing.
