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
Our school is located in a large urban city. Our teachers and staff provide a safe and fun learning environment. There are many experiences for all to have, but many students stay within our area. Most parents are immigrants. They are hardworking, caring, and involved. Our school is Title I, forty percent English Learners, and all kids receive free lunch.
My students are creative and come to school every day ready to learn.
We are a bilingual English/Spanish class. Kids love readers' and writers' workshop as well as anything to do with math and science. We work on projects throughout the year that incorporates classroom presentations and parent participation.
My Project
I have asked for two gift cards for Teachers Pay Teachers. The gift cards will be used to purchase digital supplements for different subject areas like math, science, social-emotional, language arts, social students and that will help me provide independent practice for my students during asynchronous time.
We are currently reading the Mercy Watson book series by Kate DiCamillo and want to purchase materials to support comprehension and literacy.
My school will have two cohorts and when they are not with me, I would like to provide them with teacher-created supplements that they can use independently to practice the skill I teach them in person or remotely.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
