Help me give my students a color printer to create fun math and literacy games!

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 Students

We are a classroom of 20 friendly and curious learners from various ethnic backgrounds facing several challenges, including physical, and developmental delays. 75% of the student population qualifies for free or reduced lunch. And 36% are English language learners. Despite these hurdles, my students arrive every morning eager to learn.

It is my job to ensure that my students receive the best education, and I know that a color printer will allow my students to learn through hands-on, colorful activities.

I need the public's help to provide the necessary tools so my students can succeed.

My Project

Each week I print out math and literacy games to go with the math and literacy unit. All of my games are in black and white and I would love to lighten up the activities and make them more appealing to my curious Kindergarteners.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but you will also ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

Students will be more engaged in​ the academic material at hand. Plus in this technology literate world, any interaction with updated technology will increase their literacy as well as their desire to learn and use the new technology!
