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

As a kindergarten teacher, I am committed to creating a warm and inviting classroom environment where my students can thrive. One essential element we are missing is a comfortable rug for our reading and activity area.

A classroom rug will provide a soft and safe space for my young learners to gather for story time, group activities, and quiet moments of reflection.

It will also help define our learning areas and add a touch of warmth to our classroom.

We are seeking funds to purchase a high-quality, durable classroom rug. This rug will not only make our classroom more inviting but also enhance the overall learning experience for my kindergarten students.

Kindergarten is a critical time for developing social skills, exploring creativity, and fostering a love of learning. A cozy rug will support these developmental milestones by offering a dedicated space where children feel comfortable and engaged .
