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

3rd grade is a pivotal year in a child's development. This year they will learn multiplication, write essays, and develop strong social emotional skills. The items I have requested will create a calm and happy learning environment for each child as well as give them the tools they need to be successful.

By donating to my classroom you will not just be supporting me, but also a community of learners.

Phillips Elementary focuses on supporting the whole child, and each item will be used daily and are essential to the success of my 3rd graders!
