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

The pillow and blankets will be used to create a cozy reading area where my students can be comfy and warm. The portable heater will use used to warm up the cozy area on those cold winter days. The beanie hats and umbrella will be used outside during recess to help students stays warm and dry. The snack will be used to warm up students' bellies when hunger strikes. The keyboard will be used to type up signs for our classroom's cozy corner. The laminating sheets will be used to laminated the signs.

My students are in need of comfy and cozy materials for both inside and outside the classroom.

Getting these items will help my students feels warm and cared for. They will help my students be prepared for the cold months ahead.
