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

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, clever and very spontaneous.

They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical". From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives, however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. I am hopeful to inspire our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.

My Project

Our third grade students have been learning about Oklahoma History all year. We are planning a field trip to Harn Homestead for our students to experience what life was like back in the 1800's to the time of the Oklahoma Land Rush. Through a real-life experience, our students will be able to better understand Oklahoma History.

This funding is for transportation to the site along with entrance fee for 75 students.

Our students are thrilled that they will get to experience an Oklahoma Land Rush along with participating in early Oklahoma life activities, including rope-making, mucking the stalls, and baking bread.
