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
My sweet Third graders live in a low-income, high poverty area where they face many challenges in their daily lives. Our school provides free and reduced-price lunch for 100% of our students. While they may struggle at home, they always come into the classroom with smiles on their faces and positive attitudes. My students know that the classroom is their safe place, where they can come each day to learn and leave their worries at the door.

My Project
We are requesting a classroom whiteboard that they can actually read! We are also requesting whiteboard erasers and cleaner, magnetic strips and confetti circles border. Right now we have a small whiteboard (shower material from a hardware store) at the Guided Reading table that doesn't actually erase. I use this whiteboard to display student groupings, as well as writing objectives for the week. We refer to the whiteboard every day and every day I get at least one student asking if they can try and clean the board better so they can read what I wrote.
With your help, my students will be able to focus on what is important, the objectives, rather than focusing on the layers and years of whiteboard markings and erasing.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
