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

I absolutely love the curiosity and enthusiasm my students bring to the classroom every day. They are eager to learn, ask questions, and explore new ideas, which makes teaching a rewarding experience. Each resource we’re seeking—chairs for our library, mailboxes for daily newsletters, and a classroom rug—will significantly enhance their learning environment.

The chairs will provide comfortable seating for reading and studying, allowing students to engage more fully with the materials.

Mailboxes will help them stay organized and excited about their daily newsletters, fostering a sense of responsibility. Finally, the classroom rug will create a cozy, inviting space for group activities and discussions, promoting collaboration and a sense of community. Together, these resources will support my students’ growth and make our classroom a vibrant place for learning.
