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 teach first grade to a class of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.
It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.
I teach 28 bright and beautiful first-graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade-level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.
My Project
My classroom is not equipped with all the necessary math materials that we need to make math an engaging and hands-on experience for my students. I am asking for materials that we will be using all year to help learn all the standards. They will explore money with a working cash register, We will build number sense and algebraic thinking with all the different journals and place value blocks. I am also asking for book display racks to display all of our math picture books!
With this donation, my students will be ensured best practices for math and literacy instruction and will be well on their way to success!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
