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

My fifth graders are eager to move, learn, and read every day. Help me give them the tools, equipment, and books they need to stay active, engaged, and thriving.

Your donation will help my fifth graders stay active, engaged, and excited to read—giving them what they need to truly thrive in school.

These high-interest book sets give my students stories they’re excited to read. When they have engaging, relatable books in their hands, my 5th graders build confidence, grow their reading skills, and discover the joy of getting lost in a good book—turning reading time into something they truly look forward to.

Through PE equipment like poly spots, flying disks and handballs, my students will learn by moving, playing, and engaging in active learning. These tools build coordination, teamwork, and focus—turning every game into meaningful learning that keeps my 5th graders moving, engaged, and ready to succeed!

A new whiteboard and general class supplies will get my students ready to jumpstart their learning and showcase their work. The TPT card will help me provide engaging supplemental materials to keep my 5th graders focused and excited to learn everyday.
