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.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to read our classroom proposal. I am a third grade teacher who loves to teach language development and independence to her English Language Learners. I am extremely excited but need your support in making this year fun and educational. I work in a low income school in the city of Los Angeles. I am a fairly new teacher and unfortunately, I do not have a lot of hands on manipulatives to help my English Language Learners. As we all know, English Language Learners are usually better at learning when using manipulatives and hands on activities.

The situation is that my group of students and I would really appreciate it if you would help us have the best education ever. We are in need of learning centers/hands on experiences, in order to succeed with our learning and you can make a difference! I am fortunate to teach a group of hardworking students that due to poverty are not able to have many hands on learning experiences. With this, I mention that many of these students are struggling through school, due to the language barrier, being second language learners, and/or not having the parent support at home. I am a true believer that my students will succeed, if we help them, but we all know that in order to succeed we need to work together.

I am asking for your help and support in purchasing Learning Centers that will help support our English Language Learners in Language Development. I want my students and every student to be able and succeed with their schooling. I am a strong believer that children, especially English Language Learners, can learn by listening, but most of the time by using visuals and hands on experiences. Third grade is a very difficult grade because a lot of new standards, independence, among other important tasks take place. I want to make it easier for my third graders. I believe that all students can and should have goals for the future. Please help us purchase a reading comprehension, fluency, sentence building, antonyms, and capitalization Learning Centers. These centers would be a great resource during our Independent Work Time and help us prepare/review for our coming up Standardize Test. English Language Learners have to work even harder to be able and understand/learn many new standards. I would like to thank you for your help and support. Our students deserve the best education and if you can do something to help them we will thank you. It would be a great feeling to know that thanks to you, o

For many of our children school is an obligation and others don't get to experience it due to poverty. Let's try and make it as fun and rewarding as possible. Thank you for your time. You can really make a difference. "Are you willing to take the challenge of helping us?" Make it Happen! Only YOU Can!!
