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.

I teach 21 English Language Learning first grade students. The majority of my students are on free or reduced lunch and come from low income families.

Our classroom floor is tile which makes it uncomfortable to sit on for long periods of time. In first grade like to move from our seats to the floor quit often to stay engaged. The students enjoy being on the floor but complain during the winter time because it is cold.

I have found the perfect solution to two problems my students face. The majority of my students come from Mexico so they do not know much about American history, and they hate sitting on a cold floor. I have found a carpet of American symbols. This carpet would provide a comfortable set for my students and allow me to teach them about the symbols of America.

By funding this project you will be providing a comfortable place for my students to learn as well as providing a great learning tool to my students. Thank you for considering us.
