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

One key to success, in my opinion, is creating a classroom environment that culturally represents our students and does so in a welcoming way. Our classroom walls are filled with posters, artifacts, and spa-like decor to help students feel safe and appreciated.

Creating a functional yet welcoming space for my students is important because they enter the room and instantly feel loved, supported, and safe.

The resources requested in this project are all products to help keep us clean and safe. We are requesting a cordless vacuum, mop, disinfectants, and a caddy to hold our supplies. All of these items will be used by me and the students to ensure that the aesthetically pleasing space we've created together is physically safe as well.
