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

My students have imaginative little minds that need a place to wonder. Being of low income my students do not always have a comfortable area to read. A classroom library filled with books, pillows, writing supplies, and a rug, will allow them to read and let their imaginations marvel! The books will be loved and placed on the bookshelves for easy access. The rug and pillows will be used to sit and read for a comfortable seating area. This area will be a place filled with love, inclusive literature, and comfort.
