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

When most people go to work they are greeted by a computer, a register, or a telephone. I get greeted by tiny, smiling faces that are eager to learn. These students are the reason I gladly stay till 5 at night, come in on the weekends, and toss and turning at night thinking about their successes and areas of improvement.

Although many of my students come from socioeconomic disadvantaged families they are still the brightest, most giving, loving children you could ever meet.

Knowing that cheeseburgers are my favorite food I often hear "Miss G., meet me in the cafeteria; cheeseburgers are on the menu today. You can share mine with me!" They have pride in who they are, how hard they work at school, and the bond we have made. Donating to my classroom would affect the education of 25 hardworking students.

My Project

Not only will this easel and paper greatly impact the students in my class this year but it will help students 20 years from now. This easel will be a staple in my classroom for many years to come. Students are greeted with a morning message daily which displayed on the easel. This message helps get students get focused on the day and what is to come. They get to come up and "share the pen," adding to the morning message and correcting (purposeful) mistakes. It is the first thing they see every morning and they refer to it throughout the day when they want to remember what the day's main goal is.
