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

Providing resources for creating a healthy space for students to be ready to learn! I would like a place in the classroom for the students to read and relax by providing bean bags as well as having figet tools to reduce the anxiety of school. Finally, would like to provide snacks for students that are hungry throughout the day ensuring that they have the nutrition to be the place to learn. Updating my space to make it more comfortable and inviting will have a positive impact on the successful of my students at Hoover High School.
