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

This year I have more students than before, and I am in need of extra classroom materials as well as flexible seating options. Having 22 students this year, I know could get a bit crowded. I would like to provide flexible seating options with floor cushions and floor desks.

This will give my students choices and comfortability in the classroom.

It will also save space in the classroom by using items that can be packed and put up after each use. Our class is also in need of daily materials such as send home notebooks and individual mirrors for foundation time.
