Game On! Let's Play!

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 students enjoy a challenge. They are often competing with one another when we complete our classroom challenges. I would love to be able to create an area in the classroom where students can choose an activity that they can play with a few classmates.

The games and activities I have chosen are designed to stimulate creative and logical thinking.

My focus is on problem solving in various areas of the STEM curriculum. This includes patterns, puzzles, and following clues to determine an answer.

I also believe that our students spend so much time on devices that it will be a welcomed change to put the laptops and tablets away and socialize in a focused way.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

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.
