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.
My Students
I teach first grade to a class of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English Language Learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.
It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.
I teach 28 bright and beautiful first-graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade-level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.
My Project
The materials I am requesting will help create a memorable celebration of the 100th day of school. We will use the posterboard to create 100th day displays. Teachers will engage students through various 100th-day activities and Read-Alouds. The bracelets will be used as prizes to encourage the importance of math and reading and the decor will be used to help make the classroom extra special for that day. As well as, encourage our students to spend time reading at home which will help them become better readers and get on grade level. These materials will make our celebration a lasting memory for our students.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
