it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
My dual kindergarten class thrives on hands-on learning, and essential supplies are key to our success. We use dry-erase dictation daily to build foundational phonics skills, a quick and effective way for me to check understanding. Pencils and crayons are vital tools as we embark on the exciting journey of the writing process. Every single item requested in this project is crucial for my students, as they come from low-income households. Your donation will directly provide these necessary materials, ensuring all my young learners have the resources they need to flourish and build essential literacy skills from day one.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
