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

We are building our Middle School Library program to create a fun and welcoming space for students to come before school, during lunch, and after school with more structured and unstructured games and creative activities. Our students love our collaborative coloring station and puzzles, but we need these additional materials for a building station and to allow us to host more creative "make and take" opportunities throughout the year.

These Plus-Plus Blocks, Perler beads, and embroidery floss will provide our students with opportunities to let their creativity shine as they build and create as part of our library program.
