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 Students

My little learners are a very inquisitive group of students. These young scholars are discovering the world for the first time. Their curiosity and excitement are contagious, and I love helping them learn. My students love books, listening to stories, music, building puzzles, and being creative. They need lots of encouragement and resources to enhance their learning.

Our school lacks the funds to provide the necessary basic supplies, equipment, technology, books, and parent workshops that our young learners need to succeed in their education.

My students are happy, energetic, and ready to learn. They are learning to become independent learners, and having the right resources can help motivate and engage them. I have to reach them to teach them! These wonderful kids need the opportunity to read lots of books, paint, and sing because it can make a difference in their academic endeavors.

My Project

Just as the rainy days begun this week several students are in need of warm clothes. Winter is coming and every child should have the basics to keep them snug and happy at school. Clothes are very expensive and many parents are going through tough times. Please help my little learners so they can succeed and enjoy school.

When a student feels cold and wet he cannot focus, and when a new pair of socks, a cozy sweater, and nice clothes can change a frown to a smile, that’s the approach needed.

A book to hold, a rain jacket for protection, comfortable feet, backpack to store, and a beautiful tee can make a child’s day! Fundamental needs are crucial for survival. I need to reach them to teach them. A happy child will be ready to learn. I need help your and I appreciate your generosity and kindness.
