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

Hi! This class is filled with students that are learning English as a Second Language. Speaking of learning new things, their teacher is a first year teacher! All of us could really use some of your generosity to get our classroom and minds ready for this challenging, exciting, and life-changing year!

Many of my incredible students are just moving to the United States and are learning English for the very first time!

Your support would ensure that their classroom is filled with all of the resources they need to be successful this year and the rest of their lives!

My Project

Our class is developing their English-speaking skills! We are asking for some key items that will make learning a new language more accessible and fun for them. In addition to the essentials, such as erasers and markers, we would greatly benefit from having access to tools that are specific to English language learners.

Magnetic letters, word-building cards, and game centers will allow my students to understand phonics, grammar, and spelling in ways that books alone cannot.

My students are ready and excited to learn, they just need some help from you! Please help us to learn how to read, speak, and write in a brand new language!
