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’m transforming a corner of my classroom into a cozy corner where students can fall in love with reading. I’m seeking donations for rugs, flexible seating, whiteboards, markers, and fun stickers as reading incentives.

My goal is to build a diverse, inclusive library that nurtures a love of reading and learning.

This will be a favorite space where students gather for read-alouds, complete assignments, and enjoy independent reading.

Your support helps create a warm, student-centered cozy corner where scholars feel inspired, empowered, and excited to read every day.

Thank you!

Mrs. Alexis Palm Elementary School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
