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 Students

My students are buzz worthy second graders. I have a classroom full of energetic eight years old who are ready to learn. As their teacher I am dedicated to their learning styles. They are in the beginning stages of their learning journey. I am molding them for their successful journey through education. I am here to facilitate active learning in an enriching environment. I hope to see them shine and grow as we continue to learn together. They will appreciate everything that is donated to our classroom.

My Project

Hey Donors, I am back again buzzing in your ears with another special request. My students have been able to accomplish a lot of beautiful things in learning thanks to you. We have been using flexible seating for a while in class.

However, I have noticed that we need flexible furniture to help us stay organized.

Flexible seating takes up a lot of space in the classroom. So I have requested bookcases, containers, and new seating to keep us organized. The only way we can continue to excel in learning is by continuing to make adjustments as we go. My students have shown so much growth in their data and interest in school overall. I want to continue to allow my students to explore with flexible seating. Please help us out.
