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

Please help give my students the best education by providing them with these new materials. I am asking for a crash pad for a student in a wheelchair who will be joining us. This will provide a comfortable place for him to stretch out when he is not in his wheelchair.

The weighted blanket and vest will provide much-needed sensory input for a few of my students with sensory needs.

The new interactive books will be fun for the children as well as educational.

Last, but not least, we are in great need of more classroom incentives for our prize box. Thank you so much.
