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 work in a title one school. My class consists of 60 percent General Ed. students and 40 percent Special Ed. students. This year I 've had to provide my class with much of their supplies, books, tissues, pencils etc. My students’ parents do not have the means to provide them with much. I have a very diverse class. I have many students who live in shelters, students who have been neglected, and so on. They are really lovely children. I only wish I could do more. With the donations I am asking for I am hoping to expose my students to hands on science activities. I was hoping to start a garden with them as well, but I didn't see what I needed. I would be very grateful for any of the items I have placed in my cart.

My Project

Most of my students come from low income homes and come from different parts of the world. I am hoping to instill the love of reading by exposing them to different genres, cultures, and traditions, including different types of text. This subscription to Times magazine will be so informative, articles and photographs will be child friendly, students will be able to take them home, share with their families and perhaps motivate them to read more about the world they live in and to learn new information. We will use these nonfiction magazines to also learn about text features, use them for research and data. They would be greatly appreciated!
