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

Imagine this scenario: it's time for reading and your teacher asks you to gather your materials, but they are scattered throughout the classroom. As you gather your belongings and settle down, you suddenly realize you forgot something and have to get up again. For a young student, this process can be stressful and disorganized. However, seat sacks can provide a solution to this problem. We are in need of seat sacks for our classroom, which will provide a safe and organized way for students to store their school supplies.

As you may know, students at this age are still developing their organizational skills and tend to misplace their materials.

With seat sacks, they will have a designated spot for their supplies, reducing the chance of lost or stolen items. Additionally, the sacks will promote a cleaner and more sanitary environment by keeping the supplies off the floor.
