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 love that my students are eager and persistent to learn. They come every day to school, wanting to get better grades, and resources to learn with. Additionally, since they come from a neighborhood where resources are low, it gives them more ambition to want to learn. With the essentials such as laminators, markers, pens, pencils, hand sanitizer, and sharpeners to provide my students with a fulfilling classroom.

These materials will make a difference in their learning by providing them with the tools to be successful day to day, and they could take it home where they don't have to think about how will they complete assignments.

It will be great to see them prosper.
