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

I’m fortunate to work with a group of eager, hardworking students who are excited to learn and grow every day. Their enthusiasm and curiosity make each day in the classroom rewarding, and I want to ensure they have the best possible environment to thrive. To support their success, I’m requesting cleaning supplies, pencils, and prize box toys. The cleaning supplies will help maintain a germ-free and safe environment, reducing illness and ensuring students can focus on their learning without distractions.

The pencils and other basic classroom supplies will make sure students are always prepared and can engage fully with their assignments.

The prize box toys will be used to reward positive behavior and academic effort, providing students with an incentive to stay motivated and reach their goals. With these resources, I hope to create a healthy, organized, and motivating classroom where all my students feel supported and encouraged to do their best.
