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

When it comes to learning, your desk is not always the most ideal nor the most comfortable. We can definitely be productive anywhere in the classroom. However, sometimes we need specific changes. Moving around and working in different areas in the classroom can possibly make us more productive.

With these rugs my students will have the ability to create a new flexible seating area in the class.

These rugs will allow a more comfortable and welcoming space in the class that will allow my students to work to best of their abilities.

Sometimes, all the students need is a different location to feel comfort and ease and become more productive. These rugs will be placed in different areas in the classroom for easy accessibility for my students to work at.
