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 have 30 motivated students, many who are English Language Learners, wanting who want to learn everything about anything. My students come from a low socioeconomic background, with limited resources available.

My 6th graders are incredible, they are eager to learn with the materials that are given to them and what their teacher can provide.

We are a Title I school in Nevada, that was built in the 1950's, with 100% participation in the free breakfast and lunch program. Many are responsible for their younger siblings who also attend my school. They are determined to succeed and all work incredibly hard everyday.

My Project

My students use composition books in STEM on a daily basis. They put all their science work inside and these books have to last for several months. With the daily wear and tear, the composition books begin looking very sad by the end of the course. Having these rolls of duct tape with printed pictures on them will allow the students to wrap the covers of their composition notebooks and make them much more sturdy.

By allowing them to pick colorful duct tape with patterns, the students can personalize their notebooks to their satisfaction, allowing them to take pride in their notebooks.

Since many of my students are not able to supply their own duct tape, this will make it possible for each student to be able to decorate their notebooks in a way that is meaningful to them.
