FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Y. Garza's classroom raised $519

This project is fully funded

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 Students

Imagine not having any books at home to be able to read. Unfortunately most of my students do not have books in their home environment, so by donating to this project my students will have books to share with their families.

I have 22 very eager first grade students willing to sponge up any information presented to them.

The school they attend is part of a Title I district. They live in a high poverty level environment with very limited resources; and, most of them qualify for the free lunch program. However, this doesn't restrict them from their excitement to come to school ready to give it their all. They are so willing to please their teacher(s).

My Project

These books and/or resources will afford me with the ability to provide a Dr. Seuss book to each of my students. Annually, we celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday and have lessons and activities to go along with the theme. At the end of the activities, all of the children will receive a book and take home to share with their families. My student's will be able increase their reading fluency and comprehension skills with the goal being that by the end of the school year they will be able to read 60+ wpm.

By donating to my project, you will open so many doors for my students that right now has very limited resources in them.

You will be a contributor to their future educational requirements. And, your generosity will put hands-on materials that they otherwise would not have in their home environment. Thank you in advance for helping fund this project and giving my 22 first graders what every child deserves to have.
