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 items I’m requesting— a classroom rug, stools, and floor cushions— will provide my students with a comfortable, flexible learning space where they can engage in more collaborative and interactive activities. The rug will create a cozy area for group work and reading, while the stools and cushions offer alternative seating options that allow students to choose the environment that best suits their learning style. My goal for this project is to create an inviting space where students feel comfortable and inspired to participate in discussions, teamwork, and independent work. My students are special because they thrive in hands-on, active learning environments where they can express themselves freely and work together. This project will give them the space they need to grow and succeed as learners.
