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 25 fifth grade students from diverse backgrounds. I am looking to make their last year in elementary a memorable one.

Therefore, I would love to have enough space in our classroom for science projects and activities.

I am looking for smaller desks to make that possible. These Kid's desks and chairs are perfect!

Currently the desks we have are too big and bulky for a class of 25; we do not have much walking space and are not able to do as many activities as we'd like because of that.

My students are special in every way possible. They don't give up, they love to learn, they make my day a better one and (most importantly) they are kind to one another. With these new desks and chairs they will be able to concentrate on learning.
