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.

Our school is a low income school with limited supplies. We need resources to assist in writing and to develop our language skills. First grade is a very important year in which students begin writing. When a student has the proper resources to develop their skills they can be successful in school. First grade is the most important year because our students are developing confidence and lifelong writing skills.

We need your help to develop these wonderful students into life long learners! They need white boards and markers to be used in the classroom to show if they understand how to spell a word or write a sentence. By using the white board we do not have to use our limited amount of paper and I can immediately recognize who needs assistance.

YOU can help make these 28 students achieve academic success! With your donation you can supply each of my students with their own white board and instructional materials that will develop their writing skills. Please note that these resources will be used each year to develop the writing skills of an endless amount of students. Thank you for your consideration to a very important class of 28 terrific first graders.

You can make our New Year a year of writing and learning. What a great gift you can give- the gift of learning! Thank you!!
