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

My students are currently working on writing short stories. These stories are written in the form of a document, comic strip, or children's book. With the paper I am requesting, they can create and print up the stories to share with their community. They also need headphones to give them a text to speech option. Students will use the headphones to record their story to share with the community. Using the headphones to record their stories will also help improve their speaking skills.

We are working on building a community.

These supplies will help us to do that. Thank you for the support and love you have shared with our promising future.
