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

These items that are being requested will support my collaborative kindergarten classroom environment. We would love and appreciate all of these items that’ll support my students’ learning and provide a positive, safe learning environment. Headphones will help with students’ focus on their own device and not be distracted by others. Weighed items will help students with feeling safe and calm. Pencil grips will support fine motor skills. Thick pencils will also help with writing skills. Lamination sheets will help students have their writing supports easy to reuse. Anything you donate will make a difference.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
