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

The items I’m requesting— fine motor games, games to increase executive functioning and body awareness activities—will make a big difference in my students' learning by turning skill-building into play! These games are designed to engage them in fun, hands-on activities that strengthen fine motor skills, improve coordination, and boost body awareness. Instead of seeing these as "work," students will feel like they’re playing, which keeps them motivated and eager to practice.

My goal for this project is to help my students meet their academic and fine motor milestones.

With resources that target the foundational skills they need—such as writing, self-care, and focus—they'll be more equipped to succeed in school and develop the confidence to tackle new challenges.

My students are incredibly hardworking! They show up each day ready to learn, even when the work is tough. Their determination inspires me to find creative ways to help them grow. With your support, I can give them tools that make learning both fun and impactful, giving each child a chance to reach their full potential. Thank you for helping my students thrive!
