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

A donation of portable desk trays would greatly enhance learning in my ICT classroom. With parallel teaching, students often break into groups and work on the carpet, where laying with books can be uncomfortable and impact focus. These trays will provide a comfortable, supportive surface, helping students sit up straight and stay engaged during lessons. Additionally, the portability of the trays means learning can happen anywhere in the school, from hallways to outdoor spaces, offering flexibility for creative and dynamic teaching. Your support will ensure my students can learn in comfort, fostering better focus, participation, and overall success.
