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

Having an organized classroom helps our students navigate through the day a little better! It also helps to reduce stress when you are in an environment that is well organized. Adding a shelf to our classroom will help us add more materials for students to use during 'Work Time.' We have been adding more materials and rotating them more frequently due to COVID-19 restrictions to ensure students have enough choices throughout the day. We would love to add a couple of wobble chairs to offer students an alternative to sitting in regular chairs. We find that some students thrive in them! Additionally, our bookshelf is broken, and we are unable to use it. We would love to replace it with a new one as our students love to read books! Thank you in advance for your donations!
