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

Please help me fill my classroom with more supplies and resources! I'd love nothing more than for my students to have supplies curated for language learners.

I'm a first-year World Languages teacher in San Jose and I'm super passionate about making both my curriculum and classroom accessible, safe, and welcoming for all students.

Getting these supplies would tremendously help with increasing the access my students have to language, representation, and materials, so please help if you can!

The books are used for voluntary free reading and everything else is for classroom management and upkeep. Thanks for helping out!

Con gratitud, Ms. Martinez
