Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 use of treasure box toys as well as white board markers are the keys to success in our classroom. Hands on learning can take place more often in class and children will want to participate more. Our white board markers dry out quickly, so having more than enough markers can get the children to start showing their work.

The use of treasure box toys will get students motivated to participate.

Once the students know that they are being rewarded students will want to participate more.

I am also requesting writing paper and yellow pencils so that the students write more, which can lead the children academically succeeding.

By donating to our project, you will be helping children succeed while in grade school. Students will get to focus on the activity instead of always trying to pick the best marker.
