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 classroom is always filled with curious, fun, and interactive young learners. We have a safe space where learning is fun, enthusiastic, and engaging for all. My students come from a high poverty area where they receive free breakfast and lunch, with many who are also English Language Learners. We are a close-knit classroom community and share a special bond that is fostered through building relationships, making mistakes, and trying our best.

Please help my students receive the tools they need to help them succeed in a remote learning and/or hybrid model for the upcoming school year.

My district is starting the school year off in a remote model, with the chance of a hybrid model in the future. In either situation, these tools will be greatly beneficial. I deeply appreciate any donation to help my students adapt to this new way of learning!

My Project

The materials I am requesting include individual headphones for each student, dry erase whiteboard sleeves, expo markers, white board erasers, and pencils.

These individualized materials will be beneficial to limit the spread of germs once back inside the classroom.

These materials will be used to support learning at home and in the classroom. The individual headphones will be essential to help students focus in a remote learning model, as many students live in households with siblings and other family members. Less distractions = more learning! In school, these headphones will be with the students in a small group setting, (or centers), and for independent math/reading on a computer. The dry erase pocket sleeves will be helpful for instruction both online and in the classroom. They are used for phonics, math, writing, and literacy practice. This will allow for interchangeable worksheets inside these pockets, and are easily accessible for students.

Students will have their own supplies both at home and in school for a safer and cleaner learning environment.

Finally, I am requesting a classroom iPad. This will be a great addition to our classroom to foster learning in small groups, while tying in technology to enhance and engage learning. It will allow for many dimensions to my instruction while simultaneously adding in some flexibility for students' needs.

Thank you for helping us be prepared for learning in these uncertain times!
