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

Unfortunately, the decor in our classroom needs some updating. The paper we have is peeling off the walls, and it's torn in a few places. We wanted to infuse the room with some color. Data shows that small room changes can make a huge difference in both behavior and emotion. We feel adding color will brighten the room and go a long way in cheering up both students and staff.

Some of our furniture is quite old and well used.

By covering it, we hope to refurbish the pieces and have them last for many more years.

Additionally, we would add to our toys. We have students who love engineering and puzzles, and having a variety would be very helpful!
