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’m requesting an Apple Magic Mouse, a JBL speaker, a projector, fidget toys, and snacks to help create a more engaging and supportive classroom for my students. Our current projector is unreliable, which makes it hard for students to see and follow along with lessons. A new projector would make a big difference in keeping everyone engaged. The JBL speaker will ensure that students can hear important content clearly, and the Magic Mouse will help me navigate lessons smoothly.
I’m also asking for fidget toys and snacks.
Some of my students need sensory tools to stay focused, especially those who struggle with attention or anxiety, and snacks will help keep everyone energized and ready to learn.
The goal is to create a more interactive, focused, and accessible classroom. My students are unique because they are curious and hardworking, but many face challenges like hunger or lack of resources. With your help, we can remove and set some of these barriers up for success. Your support will truly make a difference in their education.
