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 Project
My students are kindergarten through 6th graders who are full of energy. They visit the computer lab once per week for a scheduled special. A select group of 3rd-5th graders come every morning for 90 minutes to participate in enrichment. All of our students are all doing their best in a post-pandemic world. The students have adapted to the challenges thrown at them this past year and are not only surviving but thriving in this very different environment. My students come from very diverse backgrounds. They love reading diverse books, participating in maker space activities and STEM challenges, and are very curious. Older students enjoy acting as mentors to younger students in our school. There are over 1,400 students in our school! I have a large population of English language learners. They are eager to learn and enjoy every minute of it. My students are both general and special education students. They are all amazing kids!
Paper plates and forks are used frequently, not only for eating snack but also for STEM activities!
This plate and fork refresh should carry us through the end of the year for daily use and a few special events that will need plates so the students can eat such as our Black History Month Showcase!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
