Beautiful Bronx Babies

Help me give my students sensory tools, math games and alphabet tubs, digital and analog clocks so we can learn to navigate time, cleaning supplies so we don't get sick, and snacks so we can calm hungry tummies.

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 babies are from Hunts Point, The Bronx, they come from a community with almost all below poverty line families and they deserve every resource necessary to overcome academic and emotional obstacles. These students have disabilities ranging from autism to ADHD to speech, and although the odds are stacked against them they are kind, funny, and sharp!

The math games will support the skill-based centers they rotate throughout math time and the alphabet teaching bins will cement their letter identification and sounds as well as aid them in making real-world connections.

I will use the Play-Doh and shaving cream both as calming tools but also as writing utensils to reinforce letter formations while making it soothing and sensory appealing. I will also use the cleaning supplies to make sure I promote a safe learning environment and I will use the snacks as behavior rewards as well as cool-down break snacks.

Your donation makes a big difference minute to minute in my room. I know the reading and math games as well as the sensory tools, snacks, and cleaning supplies will help my kids reach their full potential. Thank you for your consideration.
