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

Help me give my students puzzles for their elective class.

Students will benefit from playing with puzzles which will help train their brains powerful, strengthen their problem solving skills, improve short term memory, and think out of the box.

Playing with puzzles will help students' mental health by lowering their anxiety levels and making them feel happier. My students come from all over the world and have different backgrounds, so playing with puzzles is a natural way to build relationships with each other without language barriers.

The students play these puzzles at least twice a week (Mondays and Tuesdays) for 40 minutes each time.
