This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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 love how my students bring curiosity, creativity, and resilience to our classroom every day. Each child learns in their own way, and I’m constantly inspired by their determination to grow. The resources in this project are carefully chosen to meet their diverse needs—Legos encourage imagination and fine motor skills, sensory materials help with focus and regulation, phonics and math tools support foundational academic skills, and whiteboards allow for flexible, hands-on learning. Cleaning supplies keep our space safe and welcoming, while organizational tools help us stay structured so students can focus on what they do best—learning and thriving.
