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 me to give my students sensory toys such as marbles, play dough, puzzles, squishy characters, magnetic blocks, magnetic balls, magnetic rings, and stickers to help them to alleviate their anxiety.

My students have high anxiety due to their inability to read at the grade level and need various types of interventions to help them to learn and to catch up to their peers.

These sensory objects were requested by my students who have the highest levels of anxiety and said that these toys have helped them in the past.

Thank you for your support and generosity!
