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 full of wonderful ESL and special education students. The majority are new to New York and the USA. Many have escaped wars and difficult situations in their home countries. The students in the classroom come from around the world and are working together and supporting each other. My students enjoy every opportunity to learn and are eager to excel. Not only are majority of the students learning English, they are learning new customs, making friends and enjoying learning.
My Project
My students are starting a new adventure of learning in the time of Covid-19. Many students and their families were highly affected by the pandemic and are unable to afford supplies. Many families lost their source of income and parents are struggling to pay for supplies. As well, the NYC Dept of Education has rescinded the NYC teachers choice allotment. Teachers are struggling to pay for supplies and much needed resources for our classrooms. Students will be using the charts and supplies to help with their daily instruction. The printer will help aid in uploading work to google classroom for students working remotely. Thank you for all your help!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
