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

What I love about my students most is how naturally curious they are. They express their curiosities verbally and with gestures and make teaching a fun and engaging experience. I am excited to see what more they can learn with your help.

My Project

Books are an important part of our children's lives. It's important they be given an opportunity to explore new worlds through reading. The children are so excited reading stories in the classroom. My library is always chosen during center time. The children love going to the library. Imagine how they would feel having books at home. Books at home also promote family bonding and give parents an excellent opportunity to share with their children. Please help me fund this project and give my children books of their own. Thank you.
