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

Hello New School Year 2022-2023! It is with great enthusiasm and joy that I hope this new school year will come to my students in K1. My students whom come from a very diversified, and cognitively challenged background are ready to begin, we just need a few items to make our classroom come alive and bright.

My students gain so much from so little; they liven up with each opportunity that is given to them no matter how small it may be and being able to use all the colors in the rainbow it makes things even better.

My classroom consists of students with Multiple Disabilities that range from mild to severe, but that does not deter them from making an impact they just need a little more help. All the supplies that are being requested will give my students the opportunity to explore the life of Color and Art, and be able to fully develop each one of their senses to their best ability.

With the paper and paint we will be able to accomplish many creative ideas that will come about during the school year such as making crafts, murals for our front door, being able to make paper dolls of our own image and especially making those holiday crafts that parents love receiving at home.

As their teacher I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support in helping me bring them a smile to their already beautiful faces.
