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

Thank you so much for supporting my students. We are a Title I school in Texas. While we are supported and properly funded, there are just so many great resources and tools that we could use in addition to curriculum material in our classroom. Science is such an essential part our learning and day. We would love to have some hands on materials and manipulatives like legos, building flakes, and tangrams to enhance our knowledge and increase the fun! We also are looking to build our sight word fluency so the eye words are great to help us!
