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

Imagine a classroom where every child's voice is heard, where literacy knows no boundaries, and where the tapestry of diversity enriches the learning experience. I am a passionate reading interventionist dedicated to shaping the futures of my diverse group of students. In our vibrant space, we celebrate uniqueness, championing every child's journey to literacy.

Your support is vital in making this vision a reality.

With your generous contribution, we aim to acquire Magnetic Letters Kits, Poems for Building Reading Skills, Double-Sided Magnetic Write & Wipe Boards, and Reading Comprehension Mini Poster Packs. These resources are the building blocks of our literacy journey, enabling struggling readers to grasp language intricacies with confidence and joy.

Our students have diverse backgrounds, bringing a wealth of cultures, languages, and stories to our classroom. To further enhance their creative expression, we also seek Colors of the World crayon packs, allowing them to represent themselves, friends, and family in their drawings, fostering a sense of pride and belonging.

Your support will not only facilitate literacy development but also nurture a love for learning that transcends boundaries. Together, let's empower these young minds, celebrating the richness of diversity and fostering a lifelong love for reading.

Thank you for being a catalyst for change and lighting the path toward a brighter, more inclusive future.
