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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students have had their share of hardship but they are resilient and eager to learn new things every day. My students really enjoy hands-on activities, for example when we are learning about electricity they want to see a bulb light up when they connect the wires.

As a class we have zero funds to purchase the items we need in our classroom.

My Project

Please help me give my students water bottles and snacks to stay focused during class time. Our water fountains will not work unless a student has a water bottle. We are not allowed to use plain cups because they get spilled during class. The candy and cookies will help keep students focused on their assignments. We can also use the candy as a reward from time to time when we have a class game.

Please help me give my students a water bottle and snacks to eat in my classroom.
