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

Help me give my students extra manipulatives and tools to aid and support them in their journey to learn math. We primarily focus on being able to fluently count within five in kindergarten. These tools such as the abacus will help tremendously with this skill. We also sort and weigh things and I have included a dinosaur scale activity and a sorting activity as well. I know we will use these materials daily in small group and in our centers. I know these tools would help them grow leaps and bounds!

Mrs. James Mary Lynch Elementary School Grades PreK-2

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.
