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 Students

My little learners are a very inquisitive group of students. These young scholars are discovering the world for the first time. Their curiosity and excitement is contagious and I love helping them learn. My students love books, listening to stories, music, building puzzles and being creative. They need lots of encouragement and support to become lifelong learners.

Our schools lack the funds to provide the necessary supplies, equipment, technology, and parent workshops-that our young learners need to succeed in their education.

My students are happy, energetic, and ready to learn. They are learning to become independent learners and having the right resources can help motivate and engage them. My little scholars need the opportunity use technology because it make the difference in their academic endeavor.

My Project

My students need lots of help building their small motor skills. Handwriting develops at an early stage in Kindergarten. When they get the opportunity to practice their letters they develop stronger motor skills. These little learners need markers to practice writing on wipe boards and use less paper. They need these notebooks to write and draw daily.

My Kindergarteners need access to inspiring tools, innovative experiences, and a quality education so they can grow to be our next generation of leaders.

They need journals, pens, markers, and blank books to be creative writers. Writing is a process and my students need the skills and strategies to become lifelong learners. Building their self esteem and building their confidence is important and it possible with good writing activities.

Your donation will get my young learners writing every day. They need lots of practice and we your support to provide these amazing tools. Thank you for helping us reach our goal.
