FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Pigne's classroom raised $417
This project is fully funded
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 a high poverty area, in the Bronx, NY. My students are severely underserved, and my school has very limited resources. When the students find a task too difficult, they act out. I have noticed that when they 'get it,' they pay more attention. I want to teach the kids content plus skills. I service a self-contained, special education population with various disabilities. Some of the disabilities are Intellectual Disability, Learning Disability, ADHD, and Emotional Disturbance.
Most of my students are visual and kinesthetic learners; having lab materials will make the lessons more engaging for them.
My Project
Due to the restrictions of Covid, it’s imperative that all students have their own supplies and limit sharing. The best way to do that is to create kits for my students with their own school supplies.
Each kit would allow the students to have personalized supplies (pens, highlighters, markers and notebooks) which limits sharing and is easily cleaned.
I want the students to feel safe when they return back to school as much as possible. They can also be at ease knowing that I am thinking about their well being, and you are too.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
