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

This donation would be an amazing opportunities for my students to explore a variety of topics through books including transportation, as well as classics to help build skills on reading fluency and comprehension. Reading is a skill needed to be able to access the knowledge in the world. By donating these books my students will have new material to explore and challenge their reading skills.

Students with Autism perceive our world in a different manner.

Having access to sensory materials such as kinetic sand, therapy putty, and building materials help students regulate their sensory system while engaging in back and forth play. Not only do these materials help regulate their emotions and sensory, but it helps with social skills including turn taking and sharing.

As a teacher printing materials is so important to be able to provide students with lessons and materials everyday. Toner can be a coat for a teacher that is daunting. Providing ink and toner helps to be able to give students engaging and new material as well as being able to keep important documents such as data.
