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

Moving to third grade is a big change! As we move from the little building to the main "big" building, we want to provide a welcoming, soothing, and cozy library where students can enjoy reading.

Getting these wicker baskets in neutral colors would allow us to reduce the overall visual stimuli in the classroom, which is particularly important in an ICT classroom.

As we move on to read longer, more challenging chapter books, having the right home for them will help us organize them better making them more accessible for every student.

Thank you so much in advance for your support!
