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 Students
Each and every day, I am truly inspired by all of my second graders. They are constantly put into very intimidating situations that sometimes, I don't think that I could ever overcome like they do. Many of my students walk into a classroom not knowing any of the English yet, but yet they each try their best to communicate with others around them. A situation that would be extremely scary for me seems to be a stepping stone for these young minds that I teach.
Majority of my students also live in poverty meaning that they live in overcrowded homes, they may not be eating regularly, and they may not have normal sleeping hours.
But, they still walk into the classroom ready to seize the day. I have learned so much from my students and all I want to do is be able to provide the best education for them. Their inspiration for learning is my inspiration for teaching.
My Project
My students that are entering and emergent English Language learners need literacy games that focus on letter recognition, CVC words, sequencing, and vocabulary. Having these games in our room will help to build their stamina in reading and writing. These literacy games will be used for many of my second grade students who are coming here from a different country and do not know much of the English language. I believe it is important for students to have fun while learning. Literacy center games would ensure that my students were actively engaged in learning.
Your donation to this project would ensure that the English Language learners in my classroom would learn the foundations of the English language to build their reading and writing skills.
This donation could truly benefit the lives of many students in my classroom. I know that these games would be a fun and interactive way for my students to learn the foundations of English!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
