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

I am incredibly proud of my 9th-grade students—they’re a diverse group of eager learners with boundless creativity and a genuine thirst for knowledge. They come to class each day ready to tackle new challenges, and I want to create an environment that nurtures their curiosity and comfort. By adding a couch and bean bag chairs to our classroom, I aim to make our space more inviting, offering them a comfortable place to engage in collaborative discussions, group projects, or quiet reading.

The couches and bean bag chairs will transform our room into a more dynamic learning environment, where students can relax and focus, ultimately enhancing their academic performance and well-being.

My goal for this project is to foster a classroom atmosphere that feels like a second home—one where students feel supported and inspired to achieve their full potential.

What makes my students special is their resilience and determination; despite any obstacles they face, they remain committed to learning and growing every day. This project is about giving them the comfort they deserve so they can thrive.
