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 have been begging for a class pet. I want to give them a comfy classroom with a class pet to love! Please help me to build our classroom community and teach my students about caring for a pet. In addition, I want to make our classroom more comfy. We have some flexible seating in our classroom and I want to add to the collection so there is enough for all of my students. Please help me make our classroom feel like home and make it a place students feel safe and loved!
