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

The items I’m requesting will transform our classroom into a space encouraging focus and creativity. The speaker will make lessons more engaging, bringing energy to our learning environment. At the same time, the rolling cart and storage boxes will help keep everything organized so students can easily access materials. The Lysol spray will ensure a clean, safe space for them to work in. Additionally, the LEGO boxes will provide a fun, hands-on way for students to collaborate and build problem-solving skills during downtime.

My goal is to create a classroom that is not only functional but also inspiring.

I want my students to feel excited about coming to class, knowing they have a space supporting their learning and creativity. By organizing our materials and adding fun elements like the LEGO boxes, I aim to foster a more focused, productive environment that encourages collaboration and imagination.

My students are diverse, hardworking, and full of potential. They bring unique perspectives to the classroom and are always eager to learn and collaborate. They deserve a space that reflects their creativity and helps them stay organized so they can succeed. These items will empower them to thrive, and your support will give them the tools they need to reach their full potential.
