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

Different seating options have been shown by studies to help students focus in class. They can choose how to make themselves comfortable in their learning environment. In addition, The colors in the cushions help make the room a more inviting and relaxed space.

Help buy some pillows/ seat cushions for my Title 1 STEM classroom.

Our desks are old and uncomfortable. These cushions will give my students flexible seating options, as they can choose to sit on them at their desks, use them to cushion the backs of their seats, lean on them, put them in their lap, or sit on them on the floor.

In addition, I am asking for a new desk chair as mine is very old and uncomfortable.

Grades 9-12
