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 teach an incredible group of 7th and 8th graders who are eager to learn and grow every day. However, keeping our classroom clean and organized can be a challenge, and a tidy space is essential for focused learning. With the broom, dustpan, trash can, disinfecting wipes, tissues, paper towels, and trash bags, my students will have a cleaner, healthier environment where they can concentrate without distractions.

My goal with this project is to create a classroom where students feel comfortable and take pride in their space.

A well-maintained room reduces germs, minimizes mess, and helps students stay on task. These supplies will allow us to work together to keep our learning environment fresh and inviting.

My students are hardworking and determined, many of whom face challenges outside of school but show up ready to learn. They deserve a space that supports their success, and with your help, we can make that happen!
