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
This year I had the privilege of working with amazing 3rd graders. I was doubly blessed because some of them had been my students in 1st grade! Not only have they have grown into caring individuals but have also shown a commitment to learning.
Some of my students have shown a budding career in art while others are on their way to one day being acclaimed writers.
As such, I want to make sure that they have the materials needed to continue nurturing their interests during the summer. The composition books will allow children to use as a journal or for creating stories. With the art supplies they can put in to use the elements of art as they "capture" their summer experiences.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
