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

I work with 52 fifth graders. I teach math as well as social emotional learning. Having flexible seating in my class would be a great benefit to a lot of my students. Also, having the necessary materials for small groups and do nows would be great and help build their math confidence. My students are some of the hardest working kids I’ve met and they deserve to have everything they need and more in their classroom. Your donation would be benefitting 52 students, and they would gratefully appreciate having this new materials in their classroom.
