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

I want to continue to improve my room's environment by decorating it with a cosmic theme. My previous proposal "a whole new world" was such an inspiration that I would like to add more details to the outer this world theme. My proposal is to purchase an additional astronaut cutout suit and universe projector for the other side of the room so that most of the ceiling is covered with stars. Kids already are inspired by the Buzz Aldrin's Apollo 13 space suit cut out and I would like to add a more recent space suit on the other side of the room to complement Buzz's.
