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

Video games and board games offer opportunities for learning. The charging dock will be used to ensure that my students iPads are always charged and ready for learning. In addition, the board games will bring my students together to connect, strategize, compete, and have fun during lunch time and fun Fridays. Board games are a useful tool to help students communicate, follow rules and work together as a team while they are having fun.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
