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

A variety of math resources is crucial in TK because little ones learn in all sorts of ways! Different tools like blocks, games, and stories will help them understand numbers, shapes and patterns through hands-on fun! Your support can transform early math education for our youngest learners! By donating towards a variety of math resources for my TK students, you're providing them with building blocks for future success. These resources will make learning fun and accessible, helping them grasp essential concepts like counting, shapes, and problem-solving.

Your contribution will spark curiosity, build confidence, and set these children on a path of becoming confident mathematicians.

With your contribution, every student can find something that clicks with them, making math exciting and building a strong foundation for later on!
