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

Help me give my students a comfortable couch. I want them to be able to select their favorite spot to make their STEM projects.

My students enjoy reading books, therefore, providing them with cool and relaxing furniture will hit the spot for them to want to cuddle up with their favorite books.

It is always awesome to provide students with flexible seating options. I want my students to step into a world of comfort. I know my students will feel this couch will be the perfect addition to our classroom.
