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

My students are always reminded that the key to reading success after our lessons is constant practice! They read often when they come to my reading groups and I'd love to give them a reading nook area that looks inviting and feels relaxing!

With new rug pillows at our reading area my students will have a renewed sense of excitement to join the rug area and practice reading.

They won't have to fight for pillows anymore because there will be enough for all!

My school mascot is a dolphin, so my classroom environment is ocean themed. These pillows fit the school and classroom theme perfectly!
