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 students love to brighten someone's day and are genuinely concerned with what is happening around them. The majority of my class receive free lunch and 99% of the students at our school are low income. Despite the students circumstances they are inspired by where they come from and strive to learn to the best of their abilities. They all greet me each morning with a "good morning" and show me they are ready for the day has in store for us to learn and absorb.

Students come to school excited to learn and want to show that they can present their material from the lessons in a way beyond the pencil and paper methods they are currently limited to.

Students come from a diverse background and some are multiple families living in the same household. I want my students to have every opportunity possible and unfortunately I can't personally fund everything to give them possibilities.

My Project

My students love colors and my classroom is filled with inspiration for them to draw from. Sadl, we don't have many colors to use in the classroom because my classroom budget is so small and students finances don't allow for them to purchase many art supplies. Please help us add art supplies and recess equipment to our classroom so we can make colorful projects to show our understanding of the materials we are being taught and have colors at recess in our equipment.

If we can add color and artwork to our learning we will make memories that will last a lifetime.

My students want to be able to show how creative they are and add their own unique personalities to their work and currently with only pencil and limited art supplies we aren't able to do that.

We are lacking on recess equipment too as my classroom budget allowed for pencils, paper, and notebooks and not for extras like art supplies and recess equipment. The students have a lot of energy and the limited equipment doesn't allow for them to get all their energy out since they aren't in structured games other than tag or using one or two balls for all of the students.
