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

Dear Donors,

Please help me get chalk and dry-erase markers for my kiddos!

While chalkboards are considered a thing of the past, my students love using the chalkboard. I love to see them excited to run up to the board, get a fresh piece of chalk, and begin solving problems.

Dry-erase markers allow us to use whiteboards to show our work and erase mistakes easily. We will use these items during math lessons, where we are often asked to show how we solved the problem. My kiddos get so motivated by using these small tools. They make learning fun and that makes us all happy.

Sincerely,

Analia Torres

Ms. Torres PS 106 Parkchester Grades 3-5
