Preparing The Learning Space

Help me give my students adequate materials to aid in their classroom work.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Luis's classroom raised $471

This project is fully funded

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

These materials, such as ear muffs, mailbox keepers, and fidget chair bands, will help me provide adequate instructions to my students and also serve their individual needs inside the classroom. I will be making sure to provide a space where they can take breaks when needed, have fidgets available to help with their anxiety while trying to complete their classwork, and also make sure that I have all materials readily available each and every day. These materials will also aid my students in making sure that they have the appropriate tools based on their IEP/accommodations to learn the material in the classroom.
