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 Project

Students deserve to have every resource at their disposal. Unfortunately, the reality is that many students are denied even the bare minimum basics!

Students need a clock to be able to track the time in class, stickers to be incentivized in fun activities, markers to express themselves and a bin to keep all the supplies in!

Please help me provide these materials to my students with this project.

Please help give deserving students a classroom that allows them to express themselves, their creativity and bring joy into the school day.
