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'm hoping to be able to provide my students with toiletries such as lotion, deodorant, toothbrushes + toothpaste, bodywash, chapsticks, and menstrual pads. Providing my students with necessities such as toiletries will help them feel confident, secure, and focused in class.

I will be putting the toiletries into a personalized bag which students will take home.

The full-size lotion bottle will stay in class for students to use and extra menstrual pads will be kept in class as well.

Alongside the hygiene items requested, I will be teaching my students about their physical health and how to be hygienic. I will be using "The Great Body Shop" to guide the conversation. My students are beginning to go through puberty and have begun to talk about hygiene issues. By providing them with the lesson and the hygiene items I am requesting, I can help my students feel confident, secure, and knowledgeable.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
