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

As we gear up for an exciting new school year, I'm reaching out for support to help provide the essential supplies that will set the stage for a year of growth and learning in our classroom. With your support, we will have access to the tools needed to succeed from day one.

Our classroom is a place where young minds flourish, and having the right materials plays a crucial role in fostering an environment where creativity, exploration, and academic achievement thrive.

I have requested sentence strips, anchor chart paper, construction paper, and sticky tape to allow for modeling, practice and display of content in our classroom. Laminating sheets will enable me to create learning materials that will last for students to engage with. The birthday treats will be used to celebrate students within our community throughout the year on their special day!

Your contribution will make a difference in to the start of the upcoming school year! Thank you for considering support for our classroom community!
