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

Having an organized classroom is critical to ensure more uninterrupted instructional time. I have selected items that will allow me to organize and store student work and materials in an easily accessible way.

I have chosen a student mailbox system that will allow us to organize students' graded work in an efficient manner.

This will also eliminate clutter from the classroom. I have selected dry erase pockets and table spots to use during small group and whole group instruction. These are efficient because they can be used throughout the school year, eliminating any unnecessary waste.

Mrs. Peterson Mitchell Elementary School Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
