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

A spirited bunch of sprightly sprats who are in recovery from the horrid Hurricane Harvey.

My students are inquisitive, energetic, and eclectic learners.

Pre-existing lower income socio-economic demographics are considerably aggravated by the floodwaters of natural disaster. Nevertheless on their first day returning to school students were eager to learn and divest themselves of previous woes. This funding opportunity will help return some supplies back to students and bolster their equitable access to education that connects them to a global community of learners.

As a social studies teacher I merely seek resources to support students in such a direction to diverse the learning process and opportunities.

My Project

What's worse than not be prepared for class? Not having resources to help color students view of the world.

Colored pencils for maps and visualization of cultural events.

Markers for creating banners and posters. Sharpeners to help them (the pencils!) sharp. A roll of butcher paper for them to unroll their creative streak outside of a box of printer paper. Of course a few extra notebooks couldn't hurt to document their reflections on travels, events, and perspective of the places we visit.

Help unleash the creative potential of social studies in funding this endeavor, and providing more of a hands-on approach to student-centered learning.
