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
As I prepare for the 2025–2026 school year, I’m filled with excitement about welcoming a new group of bright, enthusiastic third graders. Every year brings a unique mix of personalities, talents, and needs, and I’m committed to creating a warm, engaging, and supportive classroom environment where all students can thrive. My goal is to make learning feel exciting and meaningful while providing the structure and comfort students need to succeed. I truly believe that when students feel safe, seen, and motivated, there’s no limit to what they can achieve.
The items in this project will help set the tone for a positive and productive year ahead.
The galaxy projector and prize wheel will add excitement and fun to our daily routines and celebrations, helping build community and motivation. The heater will keep us comfortable during chilly mornings, while the cup holder and border trim will help me stay organized and create a welcoming space. The magnetic dry-erase paper will be used for hands-on literacy activities, and the Kleenex ensures students feel cared for on even their toughest days. Finally, the TPT gift card allows me to provide high-quality, personalized materials all year long. With your support, we’ll start this school year strong and make it a memorable one!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
