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

With this project, my co-teacher and I are aiming to create custom reading tracker necklaces for our students.

Each time a student finishes a book, they'll proudly add a bead to their necklace, creating a visual representation of their reading journey.

Your support for this project goes beyond beads and necklaces. It's about nurturing a lifelong love for reading, fostering accountability, and encouraging each student's unique progress.In addition, we also want to add a sensory wall to our classroom, complete with a flip-bulletin board made of sequin fabric!

Your contribution doesn't just fund a project – it creates an enriched learning environment that sparks joy and growth. Thank you for being a part of our journey!
