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 school has over 500 students in grades PK-5. In addition to regular education classrooms, we have a Dual Language classroom in every grade. We are located in the South Bronx. We are a Title I school. More than 80 percent of the students at our school receive free lunch. More than 70 percent of our students are Hispanic and over 25 percent are Black. Our students are at a financial disadvantage.

My class has a group of special students in the school.

They are new in the country and have language barriers, academic needs, and financial needs. They are forming new cultural identities while they work in their English, math, reading, and writing. They work hard every day and they are super eager to learn.

My class needs different ways to get engage and develop their identity. I would love to provide a classroom that feels like home.

My Project

A classroom is more than just a room. It's students' home away from home. Please help us organize our classroom with a clock, a calendar, and a timer. These tools will help my students to get a better grasp of time, due dates, and special events.

This project will provide students ownership of the room and build the classroom community.

The pictures frames will be hung in the room with the students' portraits and affirmations. Students will not only have a classroom but a home away from home that feels their own.
