Help me give my students a clean rug so they can read, learn, and talk to one another!

Celebrating 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 Students
My students are amazing! I teach students with special needs in a special day class setting. Currently, I have 9 students (8 boys and 1 girl) who have a variety of special needs: autism, other health impairments, speech/language deficits, and specific learning disabilities. I love helping my students access the general education content in different ways. They learn best when I integrate art, science, movement, and music into my lessons. I love that I am able to teach my students relationship skills that will help them be successful in life!
My Project
Despite numerous cleanings, our current rug remains dirty, smelly, and old! We use the rug daily to learn social skills lessons, discuss a teacher-read book, play together, and read to our friends. Unfortunately, our current rug is gross. We deserve a rug that is cozy and inviting! One of my students’ favorite activities is reading. With a clean, cozy rug, they will be able to read to one another. My students will become better readers. Furthermore, my students will be able to engage in important social skills activities and play on a clean area. This is key to their success in life!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
