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 me give my students the opportunity to stay hydrated with this amazing water dispenser and water bottles.

Since Covid, schools don't have water fountains as before.

Now students need a cup in order to drink water. I teach 1st graders and they often forget to bring a cup to school for water. Having these items in my classroom will allow for them to stay hydrated at all times.

It will also allow them to learn about helping the environment by reusing their bottles and not making more waste with water bottles.
