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

Our library serves students from age 3 through 14, including students with disabilities and special needs. We strive to make it a comfortable and welcoming space for all, but the furnishings are not always the best fit for the little ones.

These chairs will ensure a comfortable seating space for our youngest students and those who need adaptive seating.

They will enable all students to engage in read-alouds and literacy activities, making the visits more enjoyable for everyone.

The easel and paper pads will help in demonstrations, as well as being used during author visits for the authors to draw and create with the kids.
