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

In a dynamic classroom environment, students benefit from tools that support focus, engagement, and creativity. This grant proposal seeks funding for CRTIIN Privacy Desk Dividers, EXPO Markers with Cleaner, headphones with microphones, and large construction paper to help students minimize distractions, take notes, engage in digital learning, and complete hands-on projects.

Middle school students thrive when they have structured resources to support their learning.

CRTIIN Privacy Desk Dividers help minimize distractions, allowing students to focus on independent work. EXPO Markers with Cleaner encourage active learning through erasable note-taking and problem-solving. Yunsailing Headphones with microphones provide students with the ability to engage in digital lessons without classroom noise interference, while large construction paper offers a creative outlet for hands-on projects, visual learning, and presentations.

By providing students with privacy dividers, dry erase materials, headphones, and construction paper, this grant will help create a more focused, engaged, and creative learning environment. These resources will empower students to work independently, take interactive notes, participate in digital learning, and express their ideas visually, leading to improved academic success.
