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 Students

My kiddos are exceptional students who are curious about the world around them. My students love to change up the pace during the day and they enjoy getting really creative with new things. Many of my students face challenges in their personal lives but still come to school daily ready to learn and do their very best.

Being 5 years old and starting school comes with many challenges, especially during this uncertain time.

For a kindergartener, this is already a very scary time and on top of everything else going on in the world right now, it is so important I can provide my students with the resources and tools they will need to thrive as new learners.

I have been a teacher for 7 years now and have loved every second of it. Unfortunately, many of the things I use have been bought out of my own pocket or donated to me from previous educators. DonorsChoose has helped me receive more of what I need without having to spend my own money on these projects for my kiddos.

My Project

My students love to drink water! Every day I have to make a water list so that they can take turns going out to the water fountain in the hallway. I love that they are being so healthy, but it always takes away from our learning time.

To have a class set of water bottles would ensure that my students are staying healthy and never missing out on important instruction.

I am adding a set of water bottles to my wishlist, as well as some stickers they can earn to decorate their water bottles! I would love to see each kid fully hydrated and never miss out on a lesson again!
