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

We are requesting help with replenishing our reward options in our classroom. Things such as Play-Doh, magnetic tiles, and Skittles will motivate students to work hard. We are also requesting more manilla envelopes so that paperwork going to and from school can be transported safely.

Our classroom is also seeking better lighting to help students focus without the glare of the very bright fluorescent lighting.

We have diffusers in the classroom but the lights are still very bright. We are also requesting batteries to put in our interactive Eggspert game that allows students to answer questions and communicate even nonverbally. Thank you for your consideration.
