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

Clean and comfortable seating will give my students space to enjoy. The large carpet will be used as a gathering place during lessons and share time. The smaller carpet will be used in our library area. The product I choose is nature inspired to give my students relaxing effect and boost their concentration. Making sure my young learners are comfortable is an essential component in motivating and behavior management.

By donating to our project, you are enhancing the nature inspired classroom that I strive to create.

Nature inspired classroom continues to provide my student warmth and welcoming feeling.

Creating a clean space for my students will continue to increase student positive participation and enjoy visible clean carpet to sit on.
