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.
I am a Kindergarten teacher in a very low income neighborhood in the Bronx. Our families cannot afford school supplies and the teachers are not provided with any materials. We buy what we can with our own money, but it does not last forever.
Many of my children have delays in fine motor skills. This means that it is hard for them to hold a pencil properly and they do not have the manual dexterity to form letters. My children come from homes and shelters where there are no toys, crayons, or other materials to help them develop the small muscles in their hands.
To help them strengthen their muscles I do a lot of activities that allow them to manipulate different objects and materials with their fingers. Play dough is a fun way for children to practice their fine motor skills and gives them a chance to use their imagination to create wonderful sculptures! I am asking for a play dough set and accessories.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
