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.
Having 30 students in one classroom is not always a smooth and easy day. It's probably never a smooth and easy day! However, I have such amazing students and I want to be able to reward them with something they enjoy. My students love picking out a treat, toy, or supplies that they need on Fridays!
Most of my students do not have all of their supplies for the entire year.
Some come from single parent households or homeless shelters.
The district does not have enough money to hire an art teacher, so I try to buy materials for them to be creative and express themselves through art. Every year I need to replace the materials so each class starts with new materials.
Our school does not even have a library! I buy books through Scholastic Book Fairs, hand me down books, and from donations.
My Project
I need resources that will motivate my students to learn. It becomes difficult to buy everything I need to run a classroom with a positive and uplifting environment. Not only do I need supplies to teach and to run a successful classroom, but it also helps to have incentives for my students.
Your help, kindness and compassion will help my students see that they have more than their teacher supporting their education.
It's hard to inspire students who come from a community of poverty when they do not always see the difference an education can make. Having new incentive prizes will motivate my students to work hard, behave and always try their best. You will make it possible for my students to succeed, to be motivated and excited to learn. Thank you for any assistance you can give!
