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 classroom consists of seventeen inquisitive children. Their ages range from four to five years old. Our school is one of the last two neighborhood schools in our district. Many students walk home or get picked up by their parents because they live less than a mile away from our school. We are a tight-knit community that celebrates our school's diversity, celebrates achievement at all grade levels, and strives to instill character strengths, such as gratitude, kindness, and grit, to name a few.
My Project
With the colder weather approaching, it becomes harder for the little ones to play outdoors. I want to give my students a fun and engaging indoor recess during this time.
Providing my students with different hands-on, interactive, and creative toys will allow my students to enjoy their indoor recess time together after a long day of learning.
With COVID restrictions, these young children are sitting in their seats for long periods of time. This opportunity will help my students to stay social and active with their friends. Please help me bring the fun to my classroom!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
