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

My students need basic supplies this school year. Pencils, paper, and rulers are an everyday need. Help me get these supplies for my students.

Our school is a Title One school in California.

I teach 30 hard working fourth graders. They come to school eager to learn all they can and I want to make sure they have what they need. Our school is very limited on resources and now we are in need of basic supplies.

My Project

My students need a sharpener, pencils, and paper to continue to do their work in class. Our school is limited on resources and our sharpener broke down. It is such an inconvenience to have to go looking for a place to sharpen my students' pencils. We are also in need of new rulers to be able to do our mathematics work.

Basic supplies are so scarce at our school, so I want to look for these resources wherever I can.

My students need pencils and paper to do their assignments. They also need rulers to do their math work. Having a sharpener that actually works in the classroom would also be nice so my students can continue to do their work.
