Celebrating 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 have already begun transforming my classroom (thanks to Donors Choose!) and I would like to continue by adding some comfortable chairs around my tables, an area rug and coffee table, and expanding my classroom library. These materials will continue to encourage conversation and comfort within my classroom. I already have students walk by who want to take my classes just because of the way it looks, and I hope it will encourage more students to take challenging and advanced classes because the classroom looks inviting. Choice books for my students will continue to supplement the reading I assign in class, and, hopefully, foster a life-long love of reading.
