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

My amazing 1st graders have been through so much during Covid. It has invaded their lives and has interfered with their learning. Students are struggling with peer relationships, sharing, and turn-taking. I want to create a fun learning environment to help students work on those skills.

We will use these fun games during fun Fridays and recess.

Students will be able to work on their relationships with others by playing fun games. They will learn how to get along with others, take turns, play a game, and have fun! They will also work on math and reading skills.

Mrs. Palazzolo Dawes Elementary School Grades PreK-2

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
