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 Students

My first graders are little people full of energy and enthusiasm to learn each day! They are curious and willing to try new things. Unfortunately due to their economic status and neighborhood they live in, their opportunities to try new things are limited.

They live in a high poverty community where they struggle to get their needs met and most of the time their educational needs are put aside.

They deserve a high quality education and classroom. They deserve to get all the supplies and resources to foster their learning each day.

My Project

I would like to get some ink for my printer. I will be teaching virtually and most of my students do not have a printer at home to access important work we will be doing . My first graders work better - hands on, and so they need worksheets and printable pages to practice their skills. This ink would really help me print these materials and make it available for them each week. By doing so, we can bring the classroom to their home and we can enhance their online engagement!
