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
Hello! I’m a passionate fifth-grade science teacher dedicated to making learning meaningful and accessible for every student. In my classroom, I celebrate diversity by embracing sensory and neurodivergent needs, ensuring each child feels valued and empowered to succeed.
To foster curiosity and engagement, I’m seeking support to transform our science classroom into an inclusive, sensory-friendly environment.
Your generous donation will help provide hands-on science materials, flexible seating, sensory tools (like fidget bands, textured cushions, and noise-canceling headphones), and calming environmental elements such as soft lighting and nature-inspired decor. These resources will not only support neurodivergent students but also enrich the learning experience for everyone.
With your help, our classroom will become a place where all students can explore, discover, and thrive—regardless of their learning style. Thank you for helping us build a more inclusive and inspiring science community!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
