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

Morning light spills through the window slats, casting long rectangles across my speckled tiles. I glisten for a few quiet minutes before chaos begins. At 8:10, the first sneakers thump against me—tiny, squeaky, Velcro-fastened. Liam. He always runs. Always. I brace myself as his feet stomp and skid across me. I do my best to keep him upright. Gravity’s strict, and I try to be merciful. Soon the others arrive, Mila drops a cracker within the first five minutes. A squish from above—banana slice.

No one notices.

I sigh. Another day, another snack sacrifice.

A little girl named Ava curls up on me during story time. She rests her cheek on my smooth surface. Her stuffed bunny stares up at the ceiling. I stay still. I support her. That’s what I do. I hold everything: the scribbled drawings, the scuffed chairs, the spilled paint, the big feelings.

The day blurs—snack time, puzzle time, center-time.By 3:30, they begin to leave. Fewer feet. Quieter voices. Goodbye hugs. I exhale as the room empties. Silence again. As the sun dips low, a lone paper snowflake flutters down and lands softly on my surface. I hold it gently, like everything else.

Until tomorrow.-The FLOOR (AI Generated)

As you can see, our classroom floor is in much need of this Robot Mop cleaner. It goes through so much in a day, that our custodians have a hard time keeping up, especially when they are short staffed (quite often). Your contribution to our project would immensely help in keeping our littles safe, clean and healthy.

Thank you!
