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

Thank you so much for supporting our classroom! Your generosity is helping me set up my very first classroom and making it a warm, welcoming home for 60 amazing third graders. With your help, students will walk into a space that’s not only organized and inviting but designed to support their learning and growth every day.

The flexible seating—stools, floor cushions, and a cozy classroom rug—will give students the freedom to choose how they learn best, whether working in groups, reading independently, or participating in class discussions.

The printer, document camera, and classroom lighting tools will enhance our lessons and create a calm, focused environment. Organizational tools like storage carts, clear bins, drawers, and pouches will help keep materials accessible and our space running smoothly. Even the small things—batteries, tape, and light switches—will play a big role in keeping everything functional and efficient.

Your kindness is transforming our classroom into a place where students feel excited to learn, proud of their space, and supported in every way. From the bottom of my heart—thank you!
