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

The snacks will help ensure that students are energized and able to focus on their work without the distraction of hunger. Many of my students come from backgrounds where access to consistent meals can be a challenge, and having healthy snacks available will allow them to stay engaged throughout the day. Mechanical pencils are a simple but essential tool that will help students maintain neat, legible work, making it easier to stay organized and complete assignments effectively. These pencils will eliminate the frustration of broken or dull pencils, giving them the confidence to focus on their learning. Together, these items will provide students with the basic tools needed to succeed academically.

The mini bubbles will bring an element of fun and excitement into the classroom, serving as a reward system and helping students reduce stress.

They will be used to encourage positive behavior and to offer breaks that refresh students emotionally and socially, helping to create a supportive, positive classroom environment. My students are a diverse group with unique needs, but they share a strong desire to learn and grow. They thrive when provided with the resources that allow them to express themselves, be creative, and feel supported. These donations will make a meaningful difference in their everyday school experience, giving them the tools and encouragement they need to excel.
