FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Carabajal's classroom raised $480

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 are in need of some much needed basic supplies for our classroom. These materials will be used to create a learning environment where students are engaged and safe.

The hand sanitizer and kleenex on the go will be used to keep our students healthy and safe as we are on campus, as sneezes, coughs and runny noses are very common in any Prek-Kinder classroom.

The kinetic sands will be used for sensory tubs, These tubs are a must have for any special education classroom. Sensory bins provide children with the opportunity to explore and learn through hands-on tactile play that engages their senses. These bins encourage and support various types of development.
