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 fabulous fourth graders! They are very smart, enthusiastic and eager to learn. My students enjoy reading and learning new things. Their favorite time of the day is library time because they get to choose the books they enjoy the most. With these beautiful, bright crates, we will be able to organize our classroom library, while making it look more appealing.

Our school is an inner-city school in a major urban area.

My students are in a high-risk area, where the majority qualify for free or reduced lunch.
