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

Over the years our equipment, because of so much use, starts to break down and gets unusable. These students deserve a memorable and fun experience with some new and updated toys.

New equipment such as these hula-hoops, bean bags with letters, and dino balls will allow my students to each get a memorable and educating experience to elevate their learning!

Seeing students use our bent, broken, and misshaped hula-hoops is disheartening. It would be great to get some new equipment to use for future games, activities, and spelling. The students truly thrive best when the toys they are using are cohesive for a better education and learning environment.
