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

Hello and thank you for considering donating to my project. The supplies included in this project will be used by my students to create projects related to the AP US History curriculum and to help them prepare for the AP US History Exam in May. The markers, construction paper, and flash cards will allow them to create projects that will help the entire class begin to review for the big test. My students come from a low-socioeconomic community and cannot always afford to purchase these supplies on their own. As their teacher, I can provide my time and effort, but it is difficult for me to continue to supply all 78 of my AP students with the materials and supplies they need to be successful. The students in my class chose to challenge themselves by taking the AP course, and your donation would assist in their chance of success on the AP exam.
