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

I have the awesome job of working with students from kindergarten to 5th grade!!! All of my kiddos get free breakfast and lunch at school to ensure they can concentrate on learning and not being hungry. To help provide my students with every advantage, I want to make my classroom a great and enriching place to learn. I don't have enough seating for all of my students, so the added seating and desks will help to create a flexible learning space that students will know was set up just for them!

Creating a comfortable and fun atmosphere where students have choices can open up their creative side and find the love of learning.

Since my tables and chairs are way too big for my little ones the flexible seating will be just right for them. Let's show these children that they are special and deserve a place to learn that is especially for them.
