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

My 7th and 8th grade students are amazing, young individuals who have a passion for learning. Their kindness and spirited personalities shine through every day. They are curious and engaged learners, but unfortunately, they don't have access to resources that make learning fun. The educational games we are requesting would help provide opportunities for my students to learn cooperation and team-building skills. In addition, they would support social-emotional learning and help students learn how to be a good sport. Plus, they would make learning fun! Who doesn't like playing games and learning at the same time?!
