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

The materials I am requesting are to teach and encourage conversations to educate students in my class about Black History. These materials will be used to introduce students to legendary African Americans.

Black History is American History!

Encouraging students to learn and discuss famous historians who look like them is important to embracing where and what struggles and sacrifices these people made.

These materials will be used for this cohort and many cohorts to come. Thank you for taking the time to read about our project and donating
