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

Many of my students are reading below grade level and come from diverse backgrounds, including from low-income households.

These students are eager to learn but often lack access to the resources that can help them thrive.

This project is designed to provide hands-on learning tools to meet my students where they are—both academically and developmentally. By using research-based resources, I hope to strengthen their reading foundations.

With your support, I can give these students the opportunity to build confidence and become stronger readers who feel capable of learning with success.
