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
Everyday I open my door to students who come from diverse backgrounds and bring a variety of experiences and languages into the classroom. In my classroom alone there are about 12 different languages spoken at home. This makes teaching reading and language a very important part of my day. I am teach in Houston, Texas at a Title I school, which 98% of my students are economically disadvantage.
My school and my students were deeply affected by Hurricane Harvey, this past year, and even though our city is slowly recovering, my school and my students are still dealing with the personal and emotional affects of Hurricane Harvey.
It is my responsibility to not let these barriers define my students. It is my responsibility to create a fun and positive environment to encourage my student to learn daily.
My students are always excited to learn and they work hard every day to meet their personal and school wide goals.
My Project
These materials will provide supplies my students need to finish the school year strong, with limited resources from our school, and with 98% of our campus on free or reduce lunch I just want to provide some materials to help them finish the school year. By providing them with paper, pencils, Post-its and glue sticks will help them create foldables for our interactive notebooks and provide copies for class materials.
My goal is to make sure that my students are well equipped and prepared with the necessary materials needed for class.
I want to make sure each child has an opportunity to grow and learn this school year with out worrying about being able to afford supplies. Our children are our future let’s help build leaders!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
