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

The time has come to take our learning outside! My students are eager explorers who thrive on sensory experiences. With the weather changing, it’s a great time to take our in classroom learning and transport everything we know and apply it to our real world interactions. Math Skills like patterns, and literacy skills like sounds are fun to learn outside. The students not only get to move and have fun but move our learning to their other class, the world around us!

My students need magnetic board to stick their expo and eraser on without worrying it will fall or getting lost.

My students also need sensory activities, social skills and sensory games along with a ring light, microphone and a screen to record our outdoor adventures and a cart to pack it all in.

I’m my classroom, long gone are the days where student learning confined students to a chair and desk. I want my students to explore so I must show them how! Your donation to this classroom with help my students thrive in a fast changing world.
