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

I am reaching out to request your support in providing Spanish books, toy cars, and dolls as incentives for my kindergarten students.

These items will be used to motivate them to meet their learning goals and stay engaged.

The Spanish books will help enhance language skills, while the toy cars and dolls will encourage imaginative play and creativity. By offering meaningful rewards, my students will feel more excited and motivated to participate, helping them develop a love for learning.

Your generosity will make a lasting impact on their educational journey.
