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

Help me make a Sensory and Art Station in my classroom with play dough, mats, sensory sand, and much needed markers. We will be able to enjoy play dough and sensory sand activities. These will be much needed supplies to help my students further develop their skills playing and cooperating in groups, developing fine motor skills, and giving them a dedicated space to be creative and calm down when they have been active.

Donating to this project would make a huge impact, as my students are autistic/special needs children of color that come from an underrepresented community with limited resources.

Even a small amount will go a long way! Thank you for your time and support, it is greatly appreciated.
