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
Everyday my students come to school with positive attitudes and the brightest smiles we could ask for! They are so excited to be in school and curious to know what sort of activity we will be doing in the classroom each day. I truly look forward to helping them learn and preparing them for kindergarten.
Our school is located in a low-income area, our students all receive a free lunch and snack everyday.
We are always working with our families to ensure our students are getting the necessities in order for them to be successful. No matter what, my students come to school ready to learn their letters, play, read stories, count, and sing songs. It is truly inspiring to watch my students grow and learn throughout the year.
My Project
No one is ever ready for the cold weather! Unfortunately many of my students are not prepared themselves. Our Chicago winters can be very cold and most of our students walk to school everyday. Many of them do not have the basic necessities such as hats or mittens.
I am asking for hats and mittens for my students so that they can stay warm when they are outside this winter.
With a little help, we can have our students dressed warm and ready for the cold weather approaching. It is really important that our kids are prepared for winter, these hats and mittens will really make a difference!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
