it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Hello! I’m a passionate teacher dedicated to making my classroom a welcoming and productive environment for my students. To support small group instruction, I am requesting a sturdy and functional teacher desk. This desk will serve as a central spot where I can work closely with students in small groups, providing them with the focused attention they need to succeed.
Additionally, I would love to add decorative table skirts to use as curtains around bookshelves and storage areas.
These curtains will help create a warm, inviting atmosphere while also helping to keep the classroom organized and visually appealing. A beautiful and organized classroom makes students feel comfortable, supported, and ready to learn.
Your support will help transform my classroom into a nurturing space that fosters collaboration, creativity, and success for every student. Thank you so much for considering my project!
