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 am looking to fund this project to make sure that I can support my students in more ways than one. I know that many of my students have struggles outside of the classroom and I want to be able to support them, the best that I can while they are with me.

It's my goal to always try to create a safe space in my classroom for my students so they feel loved, accepted and cared for.

My project focusses on basic needs, along with mental health needs. sometimes anxiety to get to students. I believe the best way to help with the anxiety is to have useful tools throughout class to help keep them focussed and engaged!
