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 toys and educational learning supplies will help our students learn and communicate more effectively. The materials you donate will help all around our class, with our students to help them in their studies of matching and fine motor, along with all the sensory items that will help when a student is having a hard day.

The goal is to help our classroom have more engaging learning educational supplies.

Any help you're able to offer will be amazing and greatly appreciated. These will help with Fine motor, matching, communicating their wants over needs, along with sensory needs.

All our students have autism or a different learning disorder, our students are nonverbal, and that makes them no different than any other student when it comes to wanting to run and play outside or wanting to play and learn. Our paras are taught how to communicate with our students, so they know what they want and need. Our students still need your help with the gift of your donation, each item that was picked will go to help our students in different ways. Yet every item will be cherished because it was a gift, we received from you.
