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

For this project, I am asking for your donations to purchase gift cards for Teachers Pay Teachers. TPT is a website where educators collaborate and share their work. The lessons are relevant and engaging. They are written with the current student in mind.

When it comes to my leadership class, we are without a curriculum.

The gift cards would allow me to purchase lessons and activities for my students. In the end, I hope to be able to pull from these well-written lessons and activities to develop my own curriculum for the coming school year.

My students are highly interested in becoming world leaders and that is the exact kind of education I am trying to give them.

Grades 6-8
