Celebrating 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.
"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence." A day in my class typically starts with high-five and a bright "GOOD MORNING!" While enjoying breakfast in the classroom, we share stories about our weekend or the night before.
My 5th- and 6th-grade students come to class with the eagerness to learn!
When they walk into the classroom, they have an opportunity to truly be themselves, whether it be expressing themselves through arts, sports, or sharing their love for mathematics.
I have 13 wonderful students in my Special Education classroom. The students in my classroom have disabilities ranging from Specific Learning Disabilities to Autism Spectrum Disorder. In addition, 8 of my 13 students are English Language Learners. My wonderful school is located in the heart of South Los Angeles, and many of the families are considered low-income. Within the neighborhood, the students are exposed to a variety of challenges on a daily basis (gang violence, poverty, drugs, etc.). However, none of these factors hinder their passion for learning.
My Project
I am requesting a laminating machine and laminating pouches. Laminating will help my students maintain their classroom materials. My students utilize multiplication charts, sight-word sheets, multiplication/division fluency sheets, spelling lists, and high-frequency word lists on a daily basis. They take their sheets between home and school every day. Laminating all of these items for my students will help keep the items in much better shape!
In my classroom, we always emphasize the importance for caring for our materials, whether it be at home or at school.
We constantly work as a community in cleaning up our classroom, our school, and our local community. Having the laminating machine will teach my students ways to care for the materials that they use on a daily basis. It will also teach my students the importance of saving and not wasting paper. I am sure my students will gain a positive message from this donation!
