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

I teach in an urban setting where 95% of the students are socioeconomically disadvantaged. This year I have about 10 SPED students who love learning, but need extra attention and a comfortable environment to work in.

The majority of my students are diagnosed with ADHD or other health impairments.

My students are sweet and want to do their best and sometimes it takes them longer to concentrate or focus in a traditional classroom. Help me make our classroom one the students feel comfortable in.

My Project

These supplies will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom is a place where my students really enjoy-I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently!

These supplies will be used to keep the students engaged and organized in the classroom.

We would like the art supplies so we can create images from our poetry reading. The canvases are so we can paint. Usually, we work on an essay or a theme for one of our reading units, and then as an end of the unit project, we paint. They absolutely love art so they are always thrilled to be able to paint.
