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.
This school year has been filled with many changes and exciting lessons. 6th, 7th, and 8th grade are tough, but fun years. My students try their hardest despite their academic and behavioral issues. It is my hope to instill in them the knowledge to get them through their last years in elementary school, as well as to prepare them for high school and beyond. I strive to create a warm, safe, and welcoming learning environment where every student feels successful and loved.
I teach in a low-poverty neighborhood in Chicago.
My students are predominately Hispanic and African American. All of them receive special education services for academics and/or behavior. Although they struggle on a daily basis, they are motivated to do well and strive to work to their highest potential. They are hard working and excited to learn. My 6th, 7th and 8th graders deserve the best education, materials, technology, and books that I can get for them. I want their last years in elementary school to be filled with many academic achievements and great memories.
My Project
Summer is winding down and new school year is quickly approaching. I want to provide my students with materials that are necessary to be successful. As I packed up some of our supplies last year, it was clear that we were running low on important materials. It is important that the first day of school be the example for the rest of the year. I want my students to see that I am serious about their education and in turn, it is my hope, that they begin to be serious about theirs.
If I am able to provide them with everything they need on day one, they will feel successful and prepared.
I do not want them to be anxious about not having adequate supplies, and I do not want to be running around trying to scrounge up random materials so that I am able to teach. Having everything ready to go day one will set the tone for a successful school year! Please consider funding this project so that my students understand the importance of education and being prepared to learn!
