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 am excited to welcome a new group of third-grade students and create a classroom environment where they feel prepared, supported, and motivated to learn.

Classroom supplies are essential to helping my students actively participate in hands-on lessons, practice important reading and writing skills, complete assignments, and stay organized throughout the school year.

New stools will facilitate small group learning in a space uniquely organized for my third graders. A welcome banner using our Pete The Cat theme will add a nice touch to the space. Thank you for your partnership!
