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

Donating to our classroom rug project will create a warm, inviting learning environment for my students, fostering comfort and engagement during lessons. A rug will provide a cozy space for group activities, story time, and collaborative learning, enhancing their educational experience. Your support will directly impact their daily comfort and focus, making a lasting difference in their academic journey!

Classroom rugs offer numerous benefits that enhance the learning environment for students.

They can provide a soft, comfortable surface for students to sit on during group activities, story time, making learning more enjoyable. They can also create designated areas for specific activities, like reading corners or group discussions.
