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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

A classroom rug may seem like a simple item, but it can transform our learning environment into a space that feels like home.

Our current classroom lacks a dedicated area for students to gather for morning meetings and carpet time, where we discuss the day's schedule, share stories, and build a sense of community.

The rug I am requesting will provide a comfortable space for:

Morning Meetings: A place where students can sit together to start the day with positivity and unity.

Storytime: An inviting area for reading books aloud and fostering a love for literature.

Collaborative Learning: A cozy spot for group activities, games, and peer discussions.

Social-Emotional Growth: Encouraging social skills and interaction in a welcoming environment.

The rug will not only enhance our physical space but also promote a sense of belonging and community among my students. With your generosity, we can make a significant difference in the daily lives of my students. Thank you for considering supporting our classroom!
