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

My Pk-4 scholars are ready to show off their creativity and talent. They are eager to learn in an inviting environment. This year, I am committed to making sure my scholars have fun and learn at the same time. Studies have shown that children learn best through play. Please help me provide the necessary tools that would encourage my scholars to learn and show their potential. With your help, I would like to acquire all of the light lamp and lights to decorate the classroom to create an amazing Colorful World for PK-4 scholars.
