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

We are embarking on a new school year and we want to be prepared no matter what comes our way! This year I am excited to see all the new faces and share in new experiences with my "New To School Preschool" students! I look forward to watching them grow and explore through play in a print, manipulative rich environment that caters to their curious nature. Here is where you come in!

We need the TpT gift card and other classroom manipulatives to help us create and tie in our daily routines and activities all while adhering to our learning standards and meeting our goals for the school year.

Your support will ensure that our classroom community can support top notch, learning all while preparing our students to become good citizens and kindergarten ready!

Your donations encourage us to be the best teachers we can be each and every school year!

Donate to our projects and watch the magic happen!
