Help me give my students the experience of learning in a well-decorated classroom!

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

At the end of the school year, my classroom building will be demolished, and I will be moving to a new classroom. This provides an exciting opportunity to decorate my new classroom! With your help, I'm excited to purchase the following items:

-A large mural world map from 1931, which I plan on using as an instructional resource

-Bean bag chairs and a rug, which I plan on using to create a calming corner

-Various instructional posters to create a welcoming classroom environment

With your generous donation, I'll be able to create a Social Studies themed classroom that will be conducive for classroom learning!
