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

Our classroom is filled with lots of books, sensory items, and educational games. Please help fill our class with some organization tools like multiple bookshelves to display our books and games. We would love to have a rolling cart to store our sensory and intervention materials to have easy access for teacher and students.

A class that is filled with organization is a classroom ready to learn.

As a class we would love to have access to ice and filtered water as we are getting into the hot months in Arizona. This will help support in quicker transitions from outside activities and water filling to be able to move on and continue learning.
