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

In our choral program, we use a diverse variety of teaching methods to engage learning. We use our printer to print music, worksheets for music theory practice, exercises for music memorization, bingo games for rhythmic literacy and so much more throughout the year. We use a great amount of paper, and with that, a lot of toner!

Our previous gift of the printer through Donors Choose was one of our greatest blessings this year and has given us so much help in our music endeavors.

These extra sets of toner and printing paper will help us reach the end of the year in stride so we can continue learning music and challenging ourselves to be our best!
