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

My students are bright and full of energy! They are always yearning to move and create! Having additional supplies to be able to make creative examples of our learning will make a great learning experience for them. It is a great way to keep them engaged, solidify their learning, and increase the likelihood that they will retain what they have learned thus far. This project will fulfill my goal and intention to enhance the student learning experience and allow for creative learning.

With your support, we can make this year a fun, exciting, and creative learning experience!
