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

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to view my donors choose project! This year is my first year in a classroom of my very own. As the year is moving along, a few classroom necessities have sparked both mine, and my students interests.

The items I am requesting would help create a fun, useful, and rewarding classroom environment for my 4th graders.

The squishes and toys I am requesting will encourage students to remain on task and try their best while attempting Iready lessons. Students who complete a lesson at 100% can grab a raffle ticket and put it in the raffle ticket box to participate in a weekly raffle to pick a reward of their choice from my treasure box. I have also requested some everyday use items, such ass classroom stools, bulk expo markers, magnets, whiteboards. I have also requested small group stools for my students to have seating when working at my small group table.

My students and I are extremely grateful for your time and consideration. Any donation is appreciated!
