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

We would love to have these nice cabinets that are smooth and sleek. These essential furniture pieces will benefit our classroom organization. We have so many great math manipulatives that we use and our classroom needs a place where they can fit and be used effectively.

Our Science curriculum has many great components and we need shelves to keep them handy for our little ones.

We need to store our hands-on science materials in their own compartments so that the students can find them, use and put them away. This helps foster organization at a young age. Students need to visually see where things belong and this will help in math and science !!
