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

As an educator dedicated to fostering a productive and interactive learning environment, I am seeking support to acquire these essential tools for my classroom: a high quality shredder that can help me securely dispose sensitive documents wherein I can ensure confidentiality. A reliable printer can help me produce instructional materials, worksheets that I can use in the classroom. Classroom posters that can spark student's interest and different activity tools such as pencils, markers, origami papers, and brushes that I can use in teaching different lessons in Social Studies.

I work hard to make Social Studies engaging, interactive, and relevant-- bringing the past to life in ways that spark curiosity and build understanding.

I want every student to see that history isn't just about dates and facts; it's about people, choices and stories that still shape our world today.

This project will help me keep that promise to my students, to make every lesson meaningful and every class a place where history truly comes alive.
