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

Having the perseverance to learn through a pandemic is quite challenging. The children are excited to be back in school even if they have to wear a mask.

My children love coming to school and enjoy learning.

I continue to strive for engaging students in collaborative learning, blended learning, the arts, and technology. We are finding that many of the students are two to three years below grade level reading. In this grant I am asking for art materials to support projects that connect to reading.

Students come from diverse homes in Northwest Fresno. I am building the future for our next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs. After so many years of not being engaged inside the classroom,​ students are starved for opportunities that engage them in their learning. Many of the students are lonesome from divorced, separated, and working parents. When the students are engaged in their learning, they are at ease and in another zone of happiness. It takes a special learning environment to keep up with the gaming.

My Project

During the pandemic students have lost interest in holding and reading a book. As a veteran teacher of thirty-five years, it breaks my heart. This grant is supported through AKJ to provide 35 high interest level readers.

The reading books are high interest and award-winning books to spark the interest to want to read more.

This is the second grant I am writing this year to ask for more reading books to engage my students. They are beginning to learn to love reading again and I am optimistic that these award-winning books will make a difference!
