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 students love playing together with building toys during our free choice time and indoor recess. When I see my students using these toys, I notice them practicing crucial social skills, using engineering strategies, and creating stories about the toys.

Help my students continue to grow their imaginations and enthusiasm for building and creating!

Duplos are one of our class' favorite tools and are easy for them to use with unlimited ways to play and build together. Your donation would provide a set of blocks, a set of people, and mats as a building surface.

My students and I really value our collaborative play time, and they would love to have some new characters and objects to expand their projects and ideas.
