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

This year I would like to provide my students with a calm learning space. Our meeting area is where we spend most of our time together.

This is why I am requesting these materials, along with a vacuum to clean our new classroom rug that was donated to us!

This will help me keep our rug in great shape for years to come! I have also requested essential oils and warm lights to create a nice ambiance in our classroom. I am also requesting peel off, dry erase paper to cover part of our chalkboard.
