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

Indoor recess can be a challenge for energetic 4th graders, especially when the weather keeps them inside for days at a time. Having access to fun games and STEM activities during indoor recess provides students with much-needed outlet for movement, creativity, and critical thinking.

These engaging resources help reduce restlessness, encourage teamwork, and support social-emotional development.

STEM activities in particular keep students mentally stimulated while making learning fun. By providing exciting and educational options, I can ensure my students stay active, curious, and happy- even when stuck indoors.

As a dedicated teacher, I am committed to providing my students with the best learning environment. While I strive to meet their needs every day, additional resources can make meaningful difference- especially during indoor recess, when creative and engaging activities are essential. Support from generous donors will help my students thrive both academically and socially.
