Help me give my students double sided magnetic boards, markers, notebooks, and other essential school supplies so they can learn to read, write, spell and become fluent in math too, while learning at home.

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
I am a first grade teacher at a wonderful Title I school in the Washington Heights neighborhood in New York City. Ninety-six percent of our students are eligible for free lunch, but this does not dampen the spirits of these motivated students. Many of my students do not have access to technology in their homes. I have worked very hard to make our classroom a bright and happy environment, despite the struggles many of them face every day. My students are inquisitive, curious, creative and compassionate. They inspire me to be a better teacher every day.
I feel blessed to teach my students and I believe that my students are the future leaders of this country.
In first grade, I try my best to engage the kids in literacy and math centers that stimulate, enhance, and challenge them to practice the literacy and mathematical skills they need to be successful readers and writers and mathematicians.
My Project
These supplies will help my students learn while we are in remote mode during this school year. The supplies will make the remote learning experience at home more hands on. For example, the dry erase boards can be use during reading, writing, and math lessons. Children can write their answers and share their thinking with peers while receiving live instruction. Young children needs hand on materials, manipulatives and any supplies that can make learning g more interactive and meaningful for the students. Remote learning is very challenging for kids so give them these supplies will make their learning experiences more meaningful for them.
