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

Reading and writing can be challenging, but having the right tools makes a significant difference. The highlighters, pens, and pencils I am requesting will help my students engage more effectively with texts by annotating, organizing their thoughts, and improving their comprehension. These materials will support their ability to analyze and write about what they read, making the learning process more interactive and accessible. By using these tools, students will develop critical thinking skills and gain confidence in their reading and writing abilities.

My goal for this project is to help my students build strong reading and writing skills that will set them up for success.

With the proper materials, they will have the opportunity to practice, improve, and develop a deeper understanding of the content they engage with. What makes my students special is their love for learning and their determination to grow. However, they are in need of essential materials to fully support their learning journey. Providing them with these resources will empower them to reach their full potential as successful readers and writers.
