Help me give my students snacks and educational games for everyday learning fun.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ruiz's classroom raised $670

This project is fully funded

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

This project, which is filled with snacks and games, will help my students to succeed every day in school. The snacks are requested for my students as many do not bring snacks for recess due to financial situations. By providing them with a snack, they can feed their minds and boost their energy for learning.

The educational games for ELA and math will assist with small group rotations, which will help boost their math fluency and extend their ELA learning.

The yellow guided reading trackers will help students who have trouble with tracking during reading. This is also a perfect tool for students who know where we are when we read texts with minimal spacing between lines.

All of these items will boost academic learning and overall participation.
