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

Our class lives for celebrating diverse ways of learning. Each individual brings a new idea to the table, and a sense of pride to their learning.

By providing three bean bag chairs for our computer center, students will be able to have a choice of sitting at a desk or on the rug depending on what is best for them.

Choice seating during small group activities provides higher levels of engagement amongst students. It also can allow them to want to engage more through the opportunity of choice. Your donations to this project will support the individual needs when learning of our students!
