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

I'm thrilled to be moving to Houston and taking on a new challenge: teaching fourth grade! To make it a memorable experience for my students, I'm creating a fun and engaging learning environment. I believe in hands-on learning and positive reinforcement. That's why, to celebrate their hard work, I implement "Friday Payday." Students who complete their weekly assignments earn some free time on Fridays for play and social interaction. I believe in creating a dynamic learning environment. That's why my DonorsChoose project includes a cozy carpet for comfortable learning. I have LEGO bricks and Connect 4 on my wishlist – they spark creativity, strategic thinking, and a healthy dose of competition! Your support makes a difference! To make it all happen, I also need some classroom essentials like a laminator, scissors, and a new filing system. Your generous donations would be incredibly helpful in setting up a successful year for my new students and me!
