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 exude enthusiasm for learning and creativity. With your support, we aim to fuel their passion by providing letter beads from A to Z and elastic line heart beads, empowering them to create personalized "Words of the Year." These resources will transform their aspirations into tangible symbols, reinforcing spelling, vocabulary, and the art of setting meaningful goals. Our goal is to inspire each student to choose a word that resonates deeply, encapsulating their dreams for the year ahead. Through this project, they'll not only enhance their language skills but also internalize the significance of setting and pursuing goals that matter to them.

They thrive when engaged in hands-on activities that spark their creativity.

These resources will serve as catalysts for their educational journey, empowering them to visualize their dreams and take ownership of their learning. Your contribution will make a tangible difference, empowering these exceptional students to turn their aspirations into reality.
