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

This project is intended to provide learning materials for my students in 7th Grade. I am teaching Science and Social Science for this grade level. My students are eager to learn and express themselves, but we lack the necessary supplies. Writing is a fundamental tool for students to express their thoughts, ideas, and understanding. Basic materials like paper and pencils allow them to translate their internal thoughts into tangible forms. It enables them to communicate effectively, both with their teachers and their peers. It encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and creative thinking. It allows for diverse forms of assessment, including essays, reports, and journal entries. With your help, we can create a vibrant and engaging learning environment. This project will provide pencils for daily writing, sharpeners to keep them ready, printer for assignments and projects, and a variety of writing materials to fuel their imaginations. Your generosity will make a real difference in their educational journey.
