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 require a comfortable and invigorating workspace. The carpet has become their preferred spot for various activities, including discussions, reading, working in learning centers, and playing. I am dedicated to cultivating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere that empowers them to express themselves freely. Our classroom is akin to their second home, so what better way to rejuvenate our reading area than by introducing a new carpet and an accessible book closet?

They thoroughly enjoy delving into our mini library, making it a hub for reading and exploration.

Each month, I actively seek opportunities to expand our book collection. Witnessing their faces light up with excitement when they discover new additions motivates me to continually explore ways to inspire a love for reading in them.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support of our students. Without your assistance, we would be unable to fulfill our mission: providing quality education in an enjoyable and conducive environment.
