Help me give my students an ice maker to keep in our classroom to use for hydration and to help treat playground injuries.

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

We need an ice maker to meet the immediate needs of our students.

My students have minor injuries all the time on the playground and in the classroom that are easily fixed with a small bag of ice.

A new ice maker would meet their immediate injury needs. Sometimes a tiny bag of ice is enough to make their day better! We also use ice with our students for hydration as needed. It's a need of ours in our building that would be useful every single school day in our kindergarten class.
