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

On your mark, get set, GOOOOOOO!!!!

First Grade is on their mark; reaching their goals and getting ready for Second Grade!

I am requesting Nintendo Switch resources to have a Nintendo Switch Reward Party for my First Grade students. They have been working hard to reach their goals and get ready for Second Grade.

I am requesting a charging tower, steering wheels, and a few racing games. These games will allow multiple students play at once.

My First Grade students deserve to be rewarded for their hard work. Thank you! We appreciate your support!
