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

As a teacher in a low-income community, my students struggle on a daily basis. Despite the many challenges my students face, I look forward every day to providing my students with a classroom environment that is calm, cozy, welcoming, and fun!

I would like to provide all my students with learning experiences through the use of different flexible seating with yoga balls and rubber bands for flexible seating which is also proven to make learning fun.

I need help in making it happen. My students are awesome, and they deserve it.
