Let's See, Touch and Listen!

Help me give my students a wonderful start for the 2025-26 school year with full art supplies and PE activities. Our school does not fund art supplies for upper grades, and they need a well-rounded curriculum.

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

These art, music and sports supplies will help support an already rich curriculum I provide my students in my 6th grade class in South Central Los Angeles, California. All students should have a positive experience with school, and as a teacher, I want to utilize my expertise and utilize tools to optimize their educational experience. The art materials will help them further express themselves in their art perspectives. The music supplies will assist them with understanding rhythm and patterns in music. The sports materials will broaden their interests in sports activities, and further excite them in athletics. Most students try different experiences on their own, and find their talents and go from there. Others need help, and this is where teachers help their students.

If they did not have such opportunities, they may not have had such an epiphany in school.

All these experiences help build a complete educational experience, which gives students a better understanding of who they are, and their specific gifts and talents in life.
