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

This specific project will help benefit my students as they need a comfy, cozy space to enhance their learning. Researchers have proved this theory, that children are more engaged when they are in a comfortable space. Mrs. Tursi and I also need some basic classroom supplies (crayons, paper, markers, etc.) as we are running very low on the basic supplies of a classroom.

We appreciate anything that you would be willing to donate so that we can have the most successful end of year possible.

Thank you so much.

Best,

Mrs. Tursi and Ms. McCormick
