This project is fully funded
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 work in a middle school in the Bronx. My classroom is rigorous and demanding. The students I teach come from a variety of backgrounds and ethnicity, and have different abilities and experiences. However, the common connections my middle school students have are they are their work ethic, imagination and enthusiasm.
My students' ability to succeed come from their motivation and creativity.
Students know they will be challenged and pushed to succeed and need many various tools to make this success happen. Their artistic abilities are amazing; they love to showcase their talents, while producing projects and pieces that reveal their understanding and intelligence in new and creative ways.
My Project
In my rigorous English Language Arts class, students are challenged to read a variety of literature. Analysis of this literature comes in many forms. One effective way for me to engage my middle school students to explore text is to provide the opportunity to showcase their knowledge through various art projects.
Students have the opportunity to create numerous art projects that show their understanding and in-depth analysis of advanced literature and text.
I challenge students to use imagery, symbols and drawings to explore different themes and motifs of literature. By donating to this project, you will help give my students the tools they need to let their creativity shine while showcasing their intelligence and abilities in a way that best suits their learning needs. The work my students can create is truly amazing; please support their success!
More than half of 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
