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 Students

My students are fabulous fourth graders! They are very smart, enthusiastic and eager to learn. They continue to make steady progress during our new normal school year.

Our school is an inner-city school in a major urban area.

My students are in a high-risk area.

My Project

Our children have become accustomed to doing many things virtually. They do homework virtually, communicate virtually and even play virtually. Though this is a great ability to posses in times like these, they also need to find new and interesting ways in which to entertain themselves. For these reasons, I am asking with your assistance in providing my students with board games.

Board games will not only help my students stay entertained, but, it will also help them build much needed peer relationships.

Since COVID hit, it has affected many of my students in ways we as adults do not even think about. Many of my students were kept from not only family members, but their friends as well for health reasons. Now that we are back in school classrooms, the children need to find ways to re connect with others in ways other than virtual games.

Board games are a great way to build relationships with their peers while socially distanced. These board games will provide much needed one on one time for my students where they can actually speak face to face with their classmate.
