FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Slayton's classroom raised $176

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 need puzzles to be able to practice their fine motor skills, brain development, and working together. These puzzles will also tie into all various theme units and encourage my students to work collaboratively to achieve a common goal of completing a big puzzle together. Our themes include the human body and Fairy Tales just to name a few.

Since many of my students do not have puzzles at home, this donation will help my students have fun while learning!

Your generous donation will help fund materials such as puzzles and magnetic blocks that kids need to help with their development of fine motor skills, brain development, and collaborative skills. We look forward to having puzzles to help us learn and develop!
