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 young transitional kindergarten students need the materials that will make them succeed in school.

My transitional kindergarten class consists of the younger kindergarten students.

My school is located in a low socio economic area. The school does not have the budget to provide my students with new technology or even the basic needs such as crayons. My students are very eager to learn. They come to school happy and ready to learn. It will be great if we had the supplies that will make their academic life a fun and successful one.

My Project

My students need crayons that are thin enough to manipulate. They also need manipulatives such as puzzles and blocks that will help them develop their logical skills. They need visuals the will help them understand concepts. They need new technology like the iPad that will give them access to many instructional websites.

Please help me provide my students with the materials they need to make their learning experience a very successful one.

At this time we are very limited with the resources that we have. It will just be wonderful for them to have things that will help them learn and have fun. Please support this project.
