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

Your generous donation of board games and activities would make a significant impact on my students' educational journey and overall well-being.

It would not only provide them with an opportunity to have fun and relax but also contribute to their cognitive development, social skills, and emotional well-being.

By engaging in board games and activities, the students will develop critical thinking skills, enhance their problem-solving abilities, and learn valuable lessons in strategy, patience, and sportsmanship. These activities also foster teamwork, cooperation, and communication among peers, promoting a positive and inclusive learning environment.
