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
I teach in a small, cozy neighborhood elementary school in Virginia. The children in my building are lively and great kids. They appreciate and evolve from positive but firm motivation and are very bright when focused and interested. We were named a National Blue Ribbon School in 2006. Our school was renamed in June of 2018.
I love teaching grades Pre-K through first because kids at these stages are so enthusiastic and happy to learn!
I feed off of their enthusiasm, and it makes me want to provide them with even more innovative learning experiences!
My Project
We are back in person, yay!
However, now that there is yet ANOTHER COVID-19 variant (Omicron) present, I need to find efficient ways in which to keep my classroom free of germs, dust, and et cetera.
I am asking for a vacuum to keep my rugs where my kids sit daily debris-free, PPE like gloves, batteries for our fans, and Command strips to hang up all of these items on the wall and the closet.
These items will help ensure that classroom is a safe space for myself and my kids. I do not want to worry about the health of us all when I have to get my kids on grade level--teaching is stressful enough!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
