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

This school year has been the best yet. My students and I are both putting in our 100%, working hard and learning everyday. It’s almost the middle of the school year, and we need replenishment on some supplies as well as some new ideas I want to try! I’m requesting snacks, wipes, pencils, binder tabs, binders and pencil pouches to replenish/replace the things bought at the start of the school year!

My students are building their voice within academics, and I want to amplify it!

I’m requesting a mic and speaker to allow students to be heard when reading a loud or giving a presentation. I want to make them feel special and like they have the floor when participating in class! We also need a new clicker that both students and I can use during presentations.

We definitely need this mid year pick me up!
