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

"Be the change you wish to see in the world." This Gandhi quote inspired my students to improve our school by spreading an Anti-Bullying message throughout our school.

I teach in a Title I school with 96% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch program in an urban neighborhood.

My students are amazing thinkers with great potential, but they are growing up in an area of high poverty and high crime. The school we spend our days in is filled with caring teachers who put their heart and soul into creating learning experiences for all students that will help them each reach their full potential. As a teacher here, we often spend large amounts of our personal money buying materials, including books, for our classrooms.

My Project

After watching an episode of Extreme Makeover Home Edition this past weekend, featuring an Anti-Bullying message, my students were inspired to encourage our entire school to Stand Together against bullying! They would like to continue to share the Townsend Press book "Bullying in Schools" with every K-5 class. They also want to create other anti-bullying activities on the Netbook that they could share throughout all the classes too. Picture that, 5th graders teaching their peers about bullying, so powerful. I see some typically unmotivated students really getting involved and these materials would help support them in their efforts to spread the word.

Please help my 5th graders change the future of every student in our school!

These resources could have a very powerful impact on an inner city school!! By supporting our project you are helping us Stand Together against bullying!
