This project is fully funded

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

What makes my students special is their love for learning and their willingness to help each other grow — no matter the challenge. I want to provide them with the right tools to keep that spark alive.

These resources will make a big difference in how my students learn.

Magnetic building tiles and blocks will strengthen their problem-solving, teamwork, and critical thinking skills through hands-on STEM exploration. Art supplies like paints and markers will encourage creativity and self-expression, helping students connect to what they’re learning in a personal way.

Cleaning tools and organizers will help keep our classroom fresh, welcoming, and organized, so we can focus on learning without distractions.

My goal for this project is to create a classroom where students feel inspired, comfortable, and proud of their work. With the right resources, my students can explore their interests, work together, and gain confidence in their abilities, setting the stage for a lifelong love of learning.
