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

The items in my cart will support students who are reading two or more grade levels below their standard grade. These students gained major deficits during the COVID-19 pandemic and are struggling to keep up. I plan to bring joy back into reading with these games and resources.

During double blocks, I plan to use these games to help students work on foundational skills.

Some of the skills needed are blending words and other fluency skills. When students are given multiple opportunities to practice reading on their level, they are able to develop stamina and will attempt to read more frequently.

Ms. Rivera Mott Hall V School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
