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

Hi everyone! First grade students who are English language learners. They love to read and learn many subjects. Overall they enjoy their classroom being full of fun activities and most importantly comfortable. Students learn multiple subjects throughout the day including physical education indoors. They love reading and doing science experiments. They are very eager to learn every day and are learning to be the best that they can be. They love their classroom. And most importantly that they learn something new every single day!

My Project

My first grade students need a new carpet in their classroom. We have one very very old and dirty carpet. We spend majority of the day doing whole group activities in the whole class carpet. I would love for them to see a brand new carpet in their classroom. I spent countless time looking at their classroom making it very nice but We need to replace their old carpet and get a brand new one. As a classroom, we would really benefit from receiving this carpet because they will sit comfortably and it will a,me me happy seeing their smiles everyday.
