FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Gonzalez's classroom raised $956
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
This will be my first time teaching 1st grade and I need materials to help support my classroom. As a teacher, I hope to create a safe and positive environment, where my students enjoy learning and can learn in new ways and different perspectives. To be able to do so, I need you help to get started in my classroom by purchasing materials such as books, and other school supplies that is used daily.
Books are a big priority. I only have about 20 books to get me started. In addition, I do not have a large enough stipend to buy materials that will last me the whole school year. Any support will help!
