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

All children deserve high-quality educational resources and clean calm learning settings so that they can work to their full potential. My 5th grade angels are no exception to this, however, due to different circumstances this is not always the case. I need your support and help to provide them with equitable and accessible opportunities to learn! Students will use headphones to listen to stories in their home language. Students will use pencils to write narratives. Students will use snacks to fuel their brains. Students will use fidgets to regulate their emotions and reactions. Students will use pencil grips to support their writing. Our goal is to help them learn and be motivated!

The fifth graders at our school have the potential to change the world with their intelligence, kindness, creativity, drive, and skills.

We need your support to bridge the financial gaps we face. With high-quality materials that support student learning, we will be able to do so. These children work very hard and deserve to be celebrated. Please consider Miss Vitka's 5th graders when donating classroom materials. These children are beautiful and worthy!
