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

I teach a group of strong, passionate, and eager diverse students who are so excited to begin their 4th-grade learning experience. These bright, eager young minds are brimming with potential, but their learning is often hindered by the limited resources available in our high-poverty community.

My students qualify for free and reduced lunch, and many lack the essential tools to support their education at home.

Despite these challenges, their determination to learn and grow is truly remarkable. Through creativity and mutual support, they inspire each other to reach new heights.

I am requesting your support in providing my students with an invaluable resource for language learning: the Spanish-English Illustrated Dictionary. This remarkable tool offers a visual and engaging approach to mastering Spanish and English vocabulary, making it perfect for young learners like mine.

With over 10,000 words and phrases accompanied by clear and captivating illustrations, this dictionary will significantly enhance my students' language acquisition. It will empower them to explore the English/Spanish language with confidence and curiosity. By providing them with this resource, we are investing in their future success.

I believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn and grow, and this dictionary is a key component in achieving that goal. Your generous donation will directly impact my students' ability to develop strong bilingual skills.
