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

I really love what Merge Cube can offer which is a hands-on learning experience to help teach science. This helps with all my students and meets the needs for all my students (movement, visual and auditory) because there are lessons that go with the lessons I’m teaching in the classroom.

I’m asking for one iPad for the classroom to help display the merge cube.

These students have never experienced this type of learning where it’s really hands-on. I am asking for your support to make a true difference in my students’ lives and specifically in their learning. I can’t do it without help from you.

Please bless my students with this opportunity at a chance to experience this kind of learning. I am doing everything I possibly can for my students this year thanks to people like you who are making a difference for my future scientists and dreamers. Thank you and May God Bless You.
