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

Help bring books and math to life for my students! I’m reaching out to share an exciting opportunity to make a big impact in my classroom!

I've created a project on DonorsChoose to help provide my students with much needed books and math manipulatives, resources that will help them grow as readers, thinkers, and problem-solvers.

Having items such as counters and books that were selected based on student interest in our classroom, will make learning more hands-on, engaging, and meaningful. With your support, we can build a stronger foundation in both literacy and math, giving every student the tools they need to succeed.

Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to our goal. If you’re unable to give right now, sharing our project with others is also a huge help.
