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

Some students enjoy doing their independent work in little corners or little hubs around the room. These students feel safe, and feel at peace, doing the work other than their desk. I would like to create some little sections in my room for independent reading or independent work. I use these little areas in my room for students that need that sensory accommodation. Please help me provide my students with little hubs for independent work that have a corner canopy, floor pillows, or Chair Bands. I thank you in advance for helping me provide the resources to create a peaceful environment for those students who need it.
