Help me give my students games to play with during lunch in order to keep them socializing and having fun during their lunch period.

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 Students
My students live in Brooklyn. We are a small school, with approximately four hundred students. Our class has 34 students. Seventy-one percent of our students are entitled to free lunch due to living below the poverty line. I teach in a special education class with approximately forty percent of the class having special needs.
This class has a wonderful mix of personalities.
There are several students with severe behavioral challenges and other students who are so shy that making eye contact can be difficult. As a whole, we have a fantastic time in class. The students and teachers laugh a lot in class. We try to make learning fun. I am most proud of how the students interact with one another. At the beginning of the year, there were many verbal scuffles and mistreating one another.
Now, I am proud to say that we coexist more as a family. The students are helpful with one another and everyone is treated with the respect and courtesy that they deserve. This environment is conducive for a wonderful learning atmosphere. Our students are learning, but our lack of materials hinders our progress.
My Project
I would love to have this project funded in order to give the students games to play with during their lunch period. When they are eating they have to socially distance, and this is very difficult for children because it is not natural for them to not be social during lunch time.
These games will provide them a way to socialize with each other and still maintain covid protocol.
I would love them to have these games to play with one another and act like children should act. Playing is their job!!!!!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
