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

Our amazing school is located on the southwest side of Chicago. Many of our students speak both English and Spanish. I teach first graders who are eager to come to school every day and learn as much as possible. I would love to create a welcoming and safe environment to help my students succeed.

These supplies will help my students have everything they need to succeed in the classroom.

They are getting low on all their personal supplies as well as classroom necessities. They are scrambling to find pencils they need to work on. At centers, they need scissors, glue, crayons, and markers to finish assignments. We use dry-erase markers daily for extra practice in math. During flu season, we go through Kleenex and disinfect wipes frequently. These supplies will help the students push themselves to the next level of learning.
