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

We need your support to help us continue to improve our teamwork, problem solving, and fine motor skills! We have been using the same toys to help us learn for a long time. We have an hour to cycle through the engineering boxes that we have each Thursday. It is truly the highlight of my students’ week. Some new tools (books, fidgets, and build toys) would really peak their enthusiasm! I have also included some basic supplies that would also really help us on a daily basis. We thank you for any help you may be able to give!
