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
As a teacher in a low-income/high-poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.
My students are creative, clever, and very spontaneous.
They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single-parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socio-economic status. These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with the life experiences many of us see as "typical".
From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom, I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. I may not be able to control their home lives; however, I can certainly control their experience during the school day. By doing this in a creative and positive way, I am hoping to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
Since the pandemic began in 2019, our students have been losing time in the classroom. Many have been at home learning for the past year and a half, leaving them far behind in their academic progress.
We need supplies to help our students bridge the gap that was created by the pandemic.
These books and bouncy bands are necessary tools for my classroom. They are leveled to help students learn the required sight words to become proficient readers in school.
Your donation will help children for years to come. Thank you!
