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
My students are part of a Dual Language program located in Washington Heights, New York. Our school has a large ELL population and high needs for differentiation and authentic learning experiences. I am one half of the first grade dual language class along with my wonderful counterpart. Our sole purpose is to provide an enriching learning experience to our students each and every day. These 45 students are split into two groups and learn in a different language each day. One day, they are with me learning literacy, math, social studies, and science with me in Spanish! And the next day, they are doing the same in English with my co-teacher. This is their second year in the program and are no strangers to the academic rigor this program demands from our students.
I have vivacious students in my classroom who deserve the best resources and tools to enhance their learning.
My classroom could hold the next Barack Obama, Frida Kahlo, or Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I only wish to provide them with the most up to date resources and tools to bring out the very best in these bright souls.
My Project
We been working so hard to foster and challenge 46 amazing little first grade brains that we need a refill on some essential classroom needs. Students have been working so hard for the past couple of months that some of our classroom supplies are running low. My students are in need of more crayons, pencils, paper, and other supplies necessary to promote healthy student learning.
It's midway through the school year, and my students are running low on classroom fuel!
Throughout the years, my classroom supplies have gotten lost or damaged. Some of the supplies that my students are using are very old and fragile, so I need to get them the most valuable and up to date resources/tools to help them learn critical literacy and math skills. Some of these tools include clipboards and dry erase boards for "stop, jot, & think(s)". These can be powerful tools for assessing student understanding and can promote a cooperative learning environment!
Our classroom also needs other resourceful tools such as a working easel (to display informational/helpful anchor charts), a cart to help differentiate work for guided (math/reading) groups, and plastic bags to safely store the boards.
Donating to this project will help my students get a new and fresh set of supplies they so desperately need. So please help me in getting these supplies into my classroom!
