Celebrating 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 classroom is as diverse and vibrant as the personalities that fill it. I am a proud bilingual 3rd-grade teacher at a Title I school in Chicago, where 96% of my students are considered low income. But despite the economic and language challenges they face, my students inspire me each day with their enthusiasm to learn and their willingness to persevere both inside and outside of the classroom.
I am constantly amazed by my students' curiosity, and each day they continue to teach me something new.
The school I work at is filled with teachers and administrators who are all dedicated to the students' well-being and success. They have been a wonderful example of promoting creativity, resourcefulness, and engagement within the classroom. I am blessed to work at my school and to have such inspirational students who make coming to work such a joy each day.
My Project
Many of my students can't afford the necessary warm clothing to brave the Chicago winter, making outdoor recess for many of our coldest weeks unsafe and impossible to enjoy. This means that my students end up spending months of the school year having indoor recess within our classroom. We don't have many games and toys available in our room, and the few that we do have are quite ragged and old. As the winter months progress, they are growing antsy and bored during recess, and with good reason.
Please help me restore the students' joy in recess by offering these new and exciting games for them to play.
Many of the games I have selected are also educational, so I'll be able to sneak some learning in and I bet they'll have so much fun with them they won't even notice!
