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

My students are in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade, and all have a learning disability. My students are diverse in many ways, including ethnically and economically. My students are all unique in their own ways, and they make my job fun and enjoyable.

"If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn." - Ignacio Estrada.

This statement from Estrada expresses my teaching philosophy. I aim to make my classroom a fun and positive learning environment for my students. I recognize that they all learn in different ways, and it is my job as an educator to help teach them in those different ways. I aim to help meet their educational and behavioral needs.

My Project

I teach Special Education and I have approximately eight students in my classroom. My priority for my students during this time is for them to be safe and healthy in my classroom. These air purifiers will help with ensuring that this will be a possibility. They will help by removing harmful dust, allergens, and germs from the environment. By having these air purifiers, they will help to assure my students' parents that their children are learning and having fun in their classroom at school while being safe and healthy at school.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
