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 the south tip of Texas, which borders Mexico. Many of my students are from a low-socioeconomic environment. Working at a Title I school has made me become a more compassionate person. I feel it is my responsibility to nurture my kiddos and help them become responsible citizens in society.
My students are my inspiration!
Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. I incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!
My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, technology-based projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, I am passionate about my job!
My Project
Please help me give my students their very own button maker to include in their architect center. The awesome thing about this button maker is that it is equipped with all of the materials needed to make their very own first creation. The button maker will be used to create many projects for special holidays like mothers day, fathers day, back to school, and many more. I feel my students will feel very proud to gift this button to a special someone because it was handmade by them.
The button maker is an essential tool needed in our architect center!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
