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

First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for taking the time to browse through my project.

This is my first time teaching first grade, therefore any resources gifted are greatly appreciated.

The resources will enhance the scholars learning experience, which will allow them to engage more.

Your contributions will also be helping every student feel valued and special. With these donations, students will have an environment in which will nurture their creativity.

I’m very excited for this upcoming school year.

Once again, thank you for your generosity.
