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

Adults who learned to enjoy reading, can't let a book down. They always find a comfortable spot to read. So I decided to create an area in my classroom to simulate a comfortable place to read. Today I am asking for your help to fund four seating chairs to drive my students into enjoying a book in a comfortable place. I am also requesting your help to fund a kneeling chair for my wiggly students.

Some students have difficulty finding a comfortable place to read and others have difficulty seating in a classroom's chair and focusing on the lesson.

It is not the student fault for not being able to find a comfortable place to read or to work. I, as a teacher, need to accommodate those students by providing a seating arrangements that will support their needs. So I am writing to request your help funding those items for my resource classroom.
