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 group of second graders this year love the colorful classroom that we call home! I would like to replenish many of the supplies we have enjoyed using each day and add some new flexible seating options.

My students love using colorful pens, markers, and paper to create writing and art projects!

We are in need of some new supplies, and I know they will love having fresh materials to work with.

We have also been so grateful to have many flexible seating options that allow students to work in a comfortable place around the room. New floor seats and clipboards will provide students yet another choice to help them focus on their learning.

I can't wait to freshen up our space with these bright and colorful new additions to our classroom!
