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 second grade to a class of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.

It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.

I teach 28 bright and beautiful first-graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade-level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.

My Project

As a teacher serving a wonderful group of students in the South Bronx, I am so fortunate to work with a diverse group of scholars from many different cultural backgrounds. My students and their families come from all different parts of the world and we celebrate our differences in many ways through fun read aloud's and engaging activities daily but sometimes it does not feel like enough.

I would love to extend the celebration of how diverse we are by giving my students more toys that represent and match how they look.

Adding dolls and toys that are inspired by African American, Hispanic, and Asian families will allow my students to see themselves in the toys that they are playing with. Your generous donation will allow my students to have multiple opportunities throughout the day to engage in play activities that remind them of themselves and their families and normalize and celebrate differences. We appreciate your generosity and support with this project.
