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

These items will help our classroom feel cozy and comfortable for my students. With the warm colored lights, students will be able to focus on their work without fluorescent lights! The drawer will also be used to help students stay organized and learned about different ways we can keep our materials stored in a way that works for us!

My students will be so excited to have these new items in our classroom and will be so grateful for your thoughtful donation.

Thank you so much for helping make our classroom the best it can be!
