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 Project

I love how my students bring diverse perspectives and incredible resilience to our classroom. Many of them are newcomers and multilingual learners, adapting to a new language and culture while excelling in their studies. They thrive when they have access to an organized and well-equipped learning environment that meets their unique needs.

The storage cabinets and mobile carts I’m requesting will help us keep our classroom materials, like coding kits and math manipulatives, organized and easily accessible.

This will reduce downtime during lessons and allow students to focus on learning rather than searching for supplies. The ergonomic chairs are essential for creating a flexible seating arrangement that supports both independent work and group collaboration, catering to different learning styles and needs.

My goal for this project is to create a classroom environment that promotes focus, comfort, and collaboration, allowing my students to fully engage in their STEM and computer science activities. By having a well-organized space with accessible resources, my students will be better equipped to dive into hands-on projects and explore new concepts with confidence.

What makes my students special is their determination and eagerness to learn, despite the challenges they face as newcomers. They bring rich cultural experiences that enhance our learning community. By providing them with a supportive and organized learning environment, I’m helping them build the skills they need to succeed academically and personally. These resources will make a tangible difference in our daily classroom activities, and I’m excited to see how they will help my students thrive. Thank you for your support in making this vision a reality!
