FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Vasquez's classroom raised $350

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

My students and my classroom need a refresh of our sensory toys. I am new in this position and got switched to a different classroom!

We really need some kick bands for the chairs, flexible, seating, handheld fidgets, and Velcro dots the most!

All of these items will help my students be successful with their education and during sensory breaks. These items will allow my students to stay in their seats, focus on their learning, and get that sensory input without needing to leave the classroom!
