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

Do you remember what it is like to have a nice safe quiet place to lay down and read a good book. My students are not able to do that yet because they do not have a rug. They are currently reading their books at their desk. Help my children find a relaxing place to read.

I teach a wonderfully diverse 2nd grade class.

It is an inclusion class in a high needs community public school. The students range from intervention to enrichment. Some of the Students read at a kindergarten level and some students are reading on a third grade level. One thing that they all have in common is that they LOVE to read! Unfortunately, we don't have a rug where they can enjoy a book and relax.

My Project

A rug is essential to any elementary school classroom. Its uses are endless. We would use the rug as a gathering place to discuss topics that we are interested in. We would also use it as a quiet place to read books. It can be used for whole group instruction such as read aloud and morning routines but also for small group instruction. Many may not think of a rug as an integral part of classroom materials but it is a very important tool, especially in an inclusion classroom. It is a safe place where students can discuss their feelings or take a break with a book to calm down. It is the rug that unites us and brings us together as a class.

This project is very important because every child needs a special place to read, relax and let their imagination run free.

By donating this rug my students will be able to get lost in their books.
