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

My class is composed of 55 fifth graders in a general education class, with students with IEP and ELL learners and special education students, such as autism.

A typical day in my classroom looks active.

My students are engaged in learning activities that get them moving, talking to their peers, and asking great questions. You will not see a lot of worksheets in my classroom. My students are learning through hands-on experiences.

I teach in a Title I school.

My fifth-grade students come from very diverse families. I am excited to share that my school is a genuinely diverse community. Not only do students come from varying ethnic backgrounds and places, but the life experiences that they’ve had are incredibly unique. My scholars are creative, thoughtful, and full of excitement!

My students are 9 and 10-year children that love coming to school. When school was closed in the spring of 2020 due to the pandemic not only were the kids wanting to come back, but we missed seeing their smiling faces every day.

My Project

My students are all coming back to school. I shudder at the thought of how organized they will be after over a year of working remotely. Their mindset and work habits have to once again shift. I would love to help my children by using this truly awesome student planner.

Being able to give students the tool of staying organized and how to manage their time is a basic life skill they have yet to learn.

They will carry this skill with them throughout their education and into their career.

Students will be able to write down their assignments, due dates, and upcoming projects to help them prioritize their learning. Students need the ability to plan their days and weeks out, and for many, that cannot happen without a planner. Quite a few of my students have mentioned wanting a planner but have simply not gotten one. Additionally, many of my students come from lower-income households, so having the funds to buy a planner is not always realistic. With the organizational tool in their possession, many students will be more successful in school and in their personal lives as well. These planners can be a game-changer for so many kids and will have an immediate impact on the students that use them. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student focus and time management but, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement. I have a few children whose home lives are hectic and they have a hard time keeping organized.

I would like to give them a planner to help them keep track of assignments and activities. Using a planner will also help the children not fall behind.
