Powering Up Learning Through Play

Help me give my students the opportunity to learn, grow, and build important social skills through educational games and hands-on activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alvarez's classroom raised $174

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

I’m hoping to give my students the opportunity to learn, grow, and build important social skills through educational games and hands-on activities. Games aren’t just fun, they help students with teamwork, problem-solving, communication, and focus.

By supporting this request, you’ll be helping create a classroom environment where learning feels exciting and interactive.

These games will give my students a healthy outlet for their energy while reinforcing key academic and social skills.

Thank you so much for helping me bring more joy and meaningful play into our classroom! This means a lot!

Ms. Alvarez PS 103 Hector Fontanez Grades PreK-2
