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

I love my students for their enthusiasm and creativity. They approach challenges with curiosity and support one another, making our classroom a vibrant community.

The specific items I'm requesting—speakers, fidget toys, and snacks—will greatly enhance their learning envnment.

The speakers will facilitate engaging lessons through music and audio resources, creating a more dynamic atmosphere. Fidget toys will help students manage stress and improve focus, allowing them to better engage with their work. Snacks will provide a much-needed energy boost, helping them stay attentive and ready to learn. My goals for this project are to create a supportive space that encourages exploration and collaboration while addressing students’ diverse needs. I aim to foster a sense of belonging and enthusiasm for learning. What makes my students special is their resilience and willingness to help each other. They inspire me daily with their determination and creativity, and I’m committed to providing them with the resources they need to thrive.
