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

Hello donors and thank you in advance for helping us to make our room more welcoming and cozy. My students are at that age where they like to be responsible and do things all by themselves. By having a coat rack in our classroom, they can hang their coats up and take them down when needed. Pillows will enrich our quiet area and give the children a place to rest and relax. The shelf will give our classroom some more space for moving around. Last, the tabletop magnet and dry-erase board will give our students the opportunity to show off their writing skills and creativity with magnets.
