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
The resources I am requesting will help create a supportive and engaging classroom environment where students feel motivated, encouraged, and excited to learn. Each item has been carefully chosen to support students academically, socially, and emotionally while reinforcing positive behavior, participation, and achievement. A variety of sensory tools and fidget items, such as stress balls, putty, and calming liquid motion toys, will provide students with helpful outlets to manage stress, improve focus, and regulate emotions throughout the school day. These resources will be especially valuable for students who benefit from movement and hands-on sensory engagement to stay on task. Technology tools, including wireless earbuds, will support independent and personalized learning by allowing students to focus on digital lessons, educational videos, and interactive assignments without distraction. These tools will enhance engagement and give students more opportunities to take ownership of their learning. STEM-based building sets and educational games will encourage creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork. Magnetic tiles, sorting activities, and board games will provide hands-on learning experiences that reinforce critical thinking and cooperative learning, while also serving as fun incentives for participation and academic growth. In addition, a selection of reward items, including beauty and self-care products, will serve as incentives for students who demonstrate academic achievement, positive behavior, and consistent attendance. Offering rewards that align with students' interests helps foster self-confidence, motivation, and a sense of accomplishment. My students are bright, determined, and eager to succeed, and these resources will help support them on their educational journey. By providing a mix of academic tools, sensory supports, and motivational rewards, I hope to create a classroom environment where every student feels valued, inspired, and empowered to do their best.
