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

Hello! I'm a new teacher and wanting to help supplement the curriculum for my 4th grade students with some work journals from Lakeshore. They are hardworking children who want to learn like any other child, but their families have socio-economic needs and are mainly immigrant families trying to make their way in the San Francisco Bay Area.

These supplies will help me meet the needs of my diverse learners by offering many opportunities for them to practice skills that they need extra help on!

These journals will help provide extra support in math and language art, and are formatted in a way that can be integrated into our daily work. By offering them materials like these, I can help bridge the effects of the learning gaps due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

My students and I thank you in advance!
