Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

Our wonderful school is in a high-poverty area in Chicago. My third-fifth grade students are polite, well-mannered, hard-working students who come from good homes. All of my students are diverse learners with intellectual disabilities; many come from another country or are first-generation Americans. They all face challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite their obstacles, my students come into my classroom eager to learn and do their best every day. These students are extremely diverse in terms of academic ability. This diversity is great, but, as a teacher, it can be a challenge to reach all my students when they are at different levels academically.

Each and everyone deserves to be healthy and in school .

I want to equal the playing field for my students so they have all the tools necessary to excel in school and in life. My students would be so appreciative of any help you could provide.

My Project

Two years later and our world is still in a pandemic. Our staff and students have been diligent in wiping down tables, using hand sanitizer and spraying Lysol when someone coughs or sneezes. However, our resources are dwindling quickly.

In order to keep everyone healthy and in school, we need to replenish our supplies.

Having these supplies available will help curb the effects of Covid -19 that has had on our students. Our diverse learners do better when they are in our school. They need the interactions of their peers and do so much better academically while in school.
