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!

I'm a new teacher in this district, and my classroom does not have a rug!

I would be SO appreciative if you could help give my students a comfy place to sit together and collaborate!

A carpet is a must in an elementary classroom! It provides a place for read-alouds, a place to spread out and work with various materials, and makes a classroom feel welcoming and warm! It enables flexible seating options, community building, and differentiation for a variety of learning styles to meet the needs of all students.
