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

My students are from diverse backgrounds and one thing they have in common is they love to be home! So why not make my classroom their second home?

During lunch time many of my students rush to heat up their food at the microwaves but there are limited and I would love to provide them with a microwave to heat up their foods.

I would also love to have a fridge to store their meals and keurigs to make coffee. I want my students to feel comfortable at our school!
