Paper Thin - We Need Paper

Help me give my students the experience of hands on learning! I value the power of hands-on learning, where students actively engage with materials and ideas rather than passively observing.

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

My classroom is home to a diverse group of English as a New Language (ENL) learners who are passionate, eager to learn, and full of potential. Many of my students face the challenges of adjusting to a new language and culture, but they are incredibly resilient and motivated.

This project will provide essential resources like writing paper, notebooks, and materials to support my students' language development and academic success.

These tools will enable them to express themselves, practice English, and participate fully in our learning community.

Your support will make a lasting impact on their education and help them thrive.
