Help me give my students the necessary materials to learn life skill on our New Apartment classroom.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Alba's classroom raised $572
This project is fully funded
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 Project
Having our "Apartment" will help us teach our students life skills. We can focus on developing personal hygiene habits and provide required support to ensure they practice them regularly. People with special needs can be trained to have practical living skills such as maintaining the safety of a house. They can also learn how to get their house repaired, and to service the heating/cooling systems, and other appliances, if and when necessary.
Discuss with them about how to rent or lease a house, and renew or cancel the corresponding agreements.
Cleaning the house and shopping for groceries are some of the things they can be taught to do. They can also learn how to store food properly, and check the expiration date of meat, canned food, and other edible items. They can be taught how to safeguard their money, and to take responsible financial decisions. Encourage them to learn to manage their finances and monitor their spending.
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
