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

My students are some of my favorite people in the world! They are funny, witty, smart and they work hard every day. Through our everyday learning, we use the entire classroom space. Right now, our students have a wonderful rug & wobble stools to learn from outside their desks. I would love to continue to provide them with access to more materials to support their learning. By providing bean bags and stools, students can learn from new spaces that support their learning styles! The Easel would help support learning wherever we please!
