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

I hope this message finds you well! As a third-grade teacher, I am always looking for ways to enrich my students' learning experience and make education both fun and informative. This year, I’m excited to bring Time for Kids into our classroom, a resource that provides age-appropriate, engaging content on current events, science, and global issues.

Time for Kids will help my students develop critical thinking skills, improve their reading comprehension, and gain a better understanding of the world around them.

Additionally, it will support our ongoing project aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), where students are learning about global challenges and how they can make a difference.

However, we need your support to make this possible. I am reaching out to ask for donations to help cover the cost. Any contribution, big or small, would make a huge difference in providing this valuable resource to our students.

Your generosity will directly impact the learning experience of each child in our classroom.

Thank you for considering our request and for supporting our students’ educational journey. Together, we can inspire a love of learning and help our students become informed, thoughtful citizens of the world.
