Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 teach at the tip of Texas, bordering Mexico, where my students speak Spanglish. They face many challenges such as dyslexia, special needs, and are socioeconomically disadvantaged, but that doesn't stop them from dreaming big.

They are determined, hard-working children, willing to learn no matter their circumstances.

I teach second-grade bilingual students who inspire me daily. These students come every day excited to start class. They enjoy hands-on activities, crafts, group activities, and especially working with technology. They face many challenges, but they don't let these challenges take over their learning experience.

Many students are economically disadvantaged. Many come without knowing English, but with their determination and support from their families, they can conquer everything. However, none of those factors affect these children because they want to learn. It is very satisfying seeing all these children progress throughout the school year.

I work at a very supportive school where students come first. We are all about meeting their needs. Our administrators have created a safe, happy environment for everyone: students, staff, teachers, and parents. I love working at the very tip of Texas, where my students are unique and wonderful.

My Project

Tough times we are living right now! Everyone is going through social and emotional troubles, especially children. I have seen students being sad because of a lack of socialization. As a teacher, I am trying to fill as many educational gaps during this time. However, my number one priority right one is their emotional well-being. I want my students to feel safe coming to school.

My students will greatly benefit from having this AC Infinity CLOUDLINE S6, Quiet 6” Inline Duct Fan with Speed Controller - Ventilation Exhaust Fan to use with the class laser printer during their STEM time.

This fan creates a cleaner and quieter environment when working with the laser printer. My students use their iPads to design various projects throughout the school year during their STEM program time, which allows them to use their science and math skills. We are using a program for mental health every day. My students’ health and safety come first. Students will create these projects and pass them out for a self-care campaign we will start for Valentine’s day. I am sure this project will lift up many people's spirits at school.
