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

Please help my students by donating books to my library. We are learning all about buildings. My class doesn't have any books for them to read or look at pictures about the building topic.

Kindly donate new books about the topic to our classroom.

This would give my classroom the opportunity to explore the world of buildings.

My students will be so grateful to read books about the different ways that buildings are built. They will learn about all the building and what it takes to build one. Thank you so much for your continued support.

Ms. Guzmán will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 14.

Ms. Guzmán PS 19Q Grades PreK-2
