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
It is an honor this academic year to have young scholars who are eager and determined to learn. The school is classified as a Title I school. Therefore, the scholars and families lack basic essentials. Many of the scholars in my classroom have recently arrived from their native countries. The scholars native countries consist of the following: Bangladesh, Lebanon, China, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Senegal.
My class is categorized as English as New Language.
In addition, the scholars are deficient in foundation skills (e.g. Addition, Subtraction, etc.). Many of my scholars have not had the opportunity to attend elementary school in their native countries. The scholars’ academic deficits are in the following subjects: Language, Reading, Writing, and Math.
However, despite the scholars' academic deficits, they are enthusiastic and ascertain to learn. I am dedicated to supporting scholars and families by providing school supplies (e.g. notebooks, pencils and book bags).
Finally, I support the scholars to develop self-confidence, independence and thrive to succeed academically and socially.
My Project
Scholars desperately need Microscopes-Set 36 to gather facts, observe specimens, and make discoveries while learning about plants, insects, and more!
Scholars will have the opportunity to observe specimens that could be featured 60X, 80X and 100X magnification.
In addition, scholars need Social Studies United States Government Resource Box to boost knowledge and encourage hands-on-exploration from realistic props with interesting reading passages.
Scholars will have the opportunity to attain knowledge that the United States is a representative democracy with a written Constitution separating powers among three branches (Legislative, Executive & Judicial Branches).
Scholars desperately, need all of these materials for Science and Social Studies.
