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 teach science for all of 4th grade (80 student in total) at a Title 1 school where students do not receive a lot of resources for their education. Being an educator, I want to give my students the best education and resources to better their education. I’m trying to make learning more enjoyable for all my 80 students. We need floor cushions, ball chairs, fidgets, and more. With my DonorsChoose project, my students will be able to receive rewards for their great behavior and let their wiggles out while learning all about how the world works around them.
