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
My students are all enthusiastic learners wanting the best in their education. When my students are engaged, their performance is out of this world.
All students in this district qualify for free breakfast, lunch, and a snack during the school day.
For a lot of these students, school is their favorite part of their day. After teaching for fifteen years in this district, each year is more and more rewarding. However, I am not able to provide the newest and most innovative materials for my classroom.
My Project
The use of Post It chart paper is almost a daily activity in my classroom, especially in Reading. My students come to the carpet and always refer to my chart for guided practice and to record modeled strategies. The charts allow me to see exactly what they are doing, as well as provide an easy place for them to show and share their work. What becomes a problem is the fact that the markers never seem to last. When students are having difficulty, or the last choice, they tend to choose pencil and paper. Even though they are great about doing this, it is distracting for many of my students who have focusing issues and they miss important instruction form either myself or other students. By having a chart to follow, students will be able to avoid all of these problems and focus on increasing their learning!
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
Students will be able to simply focus on the academic material at hand, and not whether their materials are going to work or not.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
