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

I'm reaching out for your support to provide essential supplies for my classes to finish the year strong.

My students need pencils, colored pencils, crayons, markers, and paper to continue their learning and hands-on activities.

In our language classroom, these resources play a crucial role in facilitating interactive engagements, collaborative projects, and individual tasks aimed at enhancing language acquisition and fluency. For instance, students utilize crayons, markers, and colored pencils to illustrate and demonstrate comprehension of textual content. The sharpener serves to maintain the vibrancy of colors and ensure the readiness of crayons for further use. Having an ample supply of writing utensils helps our students complete written assignments and projects smoothly. Your help will make a big difference in their educational journey. Thank you for considering this request.
