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

Help me provide a reading center for my students: comfortable seating such as soft and safe tree seats and floor seats where kids can sit comfortably while reading. The seating will help create a welcoming space for students.

I will create inviting reading nooks with seating while reading.

The seats will be soft and comfortable for students to sit and enjoy reading a book.

Students will add drawings to display, to create a welcoming and stimulating environment.

The Reading Center will help foster a love of reading and literacy skills in a fun and supportive environment.
