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 am requesting this unique blend of supplies because both of these resources will help inspire and elate my students. Everyday I try to find a balance between academic challenge and emotional outlets. Ways to encourage and reward my students by showing that I want the best for them while also bringing in elements of fun that encourage them to challenge themselves physically as well as academically.

The blending of these two essential items will show my students that I want them to be successful academically and get them the best resources I can so that they can clearly hear the stories/videos being presented instead of glitchy, popping noises and then we can take our new set of balls out and release some of that built up energy and have fun with the set of new equipment that is located in our classroom for our personal use.

My students are amazing and give so much to their schooling. They show up with a lot of outside challenges and they still show up and give their best, so I would like to provide them something that makes them feel appreciated and successful!
