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 students are curious, eager, and ready to learn, each bringing unique backgrounds and perspectives to our classroom. They have diverse strengths, challenges, and ways of understanding the world. To address their individual needs, we implement a personalized program tailored to each student's abilities, ensuring they receive the support and resources necessary to succeed.

To support this individualized learning approach, I am requesting essential classroom supplies such as erasable pens, folders, and organizational tools.

Additionally, products like lavender essential oil, witch hazel, microfiber towels, and spray bottles will be used to create natural cleaning solutions. This will help maintain a safe and healthy learning environment, allowing students to focus on their education without distractions. These items will also be used to create personalized learning kits that cater to each student's specific needs and abilities.
