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

Joyful experiences in middle schools are a necessity for students, staff and all community members. The items included in this project are designed to bring endless amount of joy and excitement for our middle school students. From slime to inflatable mallets to sticky hands, the items in this project will be used as incentives for students who are excelling at school and as correctives for students who need additional support.

Middle school students crave joy and excitement!

The items included in this project are abundant and will allow students to create fun and engaging memories with their classmates. Many of these items are meant to be played with and what better way to have fun at school than to play with friends!
