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.
My Students
My students live in a low-income area of Los Angeles County. All of my students come from low-income families. We are a Title I school where one hundred percent of our students receive free meals. My students always try their best at everything and anything despite the challenges that they face in their daily lives.
They are expected to have it less easy than others, but we learn that with hard work and consistency, they can be "unique" or different from the rest.
My students are so eager to learn that it makes coming to work easy!
My Project
My students often do not see their potential being displayed around their classroom to show off their hard work. My students often need basic math supplies such as notebooks, pencils, and erasers; however, as a teacher I would also like to take pictures of my students' work and of them working hard to display around the classroom. This will show my students that hard work pays off when they are able to see that hard work displayed around the room.
Having the ability to display pictures and provide students with their basic math necessities will give me a chance to display pictures of student work for parent conferences.
Seeing their children hard at work will fill the parents with joy. They will know that their students come to learn and are equipped with the tools needed.
We often have access to a STEAM lab where students have the chance to build cars and robots. Being able to take pictures of their projects and display them not only brings them great joy, but it would bring joy to classroom visitors, their teacher, and especially their parents.
The notebooks and books would be great for annotating calculations, sketching a robotic design and, finally, taking a picture of the finished product to show students what their hard work has created.
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
