Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 are great kids who are often growing up in less than ideal circumstances.

Many of my students come from broken homes and they witness violence in their streets.

My school has many students living in poverty, a high level of students receive special education services, and English is not the first language of a large group of students. Too many days my students come to school not dressed in school uniforms that are warm enough. They wear the same short sleeved shirt every day because they do not have long sleeved shirts, sweaters, or sweatshirts to wear during the cold months. They are a great group of individuals that need help to ensure a wonderful elementary experience.

My Project

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, my students come to school with multiple challenges each day. Despite these challenges, they are ready to become absorbed in math and enrich their knowledge.

My students need headphones to work at math centers quietly.

Many of the programs the students use require the students to listen to instruction on the computer. Headphones will allow continuous learning at centers while I am directing small groups.

My class was fortunate enough to receive a printer from Donors Choose earlier this year. I am asking for toner for the printer so the students can print their projects and display them throughout the school. My students take pride in their work and love sharing it with the Washington School student body.

Math is never hard, it is only a challenge!

My students know that they can never say a problem is hard, they say it is a challenge. When a student believes it is hard they give up much easier than if it is a challenge. My class says, "They didn't get the answer yet," instead of,"I don't get it." Positive attitude is so important for growth, the positive attitudes of the students is because of the generosity from Donors Choose!
