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.

Eager and excited 1st graders want to express their love for writing. They need YOUR help. They are in a high-need community and attend a public elementary school.

Due to the unfair and high education budget cuts, my students lack the necessary supplies to express their ideas. They enjoy writing and reading and need to be given a chance to express themselves. It is not fair to deny them only because there is lack of money and supplies.

The resources we need are, different writing papers, pencils, a writing center to keep their papers organized, and a large classroom organizer to give them their own individual space to keep their writing, classwork and homework. This will all help benefit them in the long run by keeping them passionate about their writing and keeping them organized and focused.

YOU will make it possible for my students to express their thoughts and ideas through writing. Students should not have to worry about not having enough supplies or materials. They should be given a chance to be creative, critical writers!! Support education! Support my 1st grade class!!
