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

I'm a first-year teacher dedicated to creating dynamic learning experiences! I specialize in integrating activities and innovative methods to teach the required TEKs to our students, aiming not only for academic success but also for the development of lifelong skills. Headphones will enrich our students' engagement with Progress Learning, while composition books will provide a space for daily journals and class notes. Copy paper will be essential for reproducing stories, allowing students to annotate without worrying about classroom copies. The additional requested items will support my classroom's daily needs. I firmly believe that access to resources is essential for both my teaching effectiveness and my students' success. As a single mother and new educator, I understand the challenges of obtaining necessary school materials. Nevertheless, I am dedicated to ensuring my students feel supported and confident, knowing that a lack of supplies won't impede their learning in my classroom.
