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.

My Students

Our 7th and 8th grade full inclusion/ESL students enter our classrooms each day with a wide range of talents and needs. The majority of our students come from low income households, many students are first or second generation immigrants, and 80% of our students speak at least one language in addition to English. My students have persevered through so many life hardships and show up each day eager to learn and do their best! Your donation can help them continue!

My Project

As a full inclusion teacher, I provide many options for students to show what they know. For many of my students, drawing is a precursor to writing and for many it's their preferred method to show what they know. Examples of this include comic strips or graphic novels as an alternate option to written response in paragraph form. For engagement, it's important that my students have new supplies, such as these Crayola Broad Line Markers and Crayola Colored Pencils, that are fun and exciting to use! Your donation can have a profound impact on how my students engage with text and writing this year. My students are incredibly creative and will love these special supplies.
