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

Thank you in advance for your donations, this will help my students achieve their fine motor skills with the play dough and scissors. Most of my students do not have their cutting ability. The dry erase magnetic board will help with their fine motor skills and different activities . Most of my students needs help with cutting and this wail help them a lot. The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional support and give them options to make more effective learning choices. Thank you for making so many students smile .
