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
We are a community of diverse, enthusiastic and inquisitive learners. All of my students are from families that emigrated from Central America and about one fourth of my students have arrived this year. What ties us all together is our thirst for knowledge, economic background, and feeling of comfort and acceptance within our classroom.
"When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind." - Dr. Wayne Dyer
Many of my students have very limited or interrupted schooling in their own language and are now thrilled to be part of a learning community. My students have shared stories of their journey here and how happy they are to be in a safe school.
They are growing and learning in a small, tight knit, community of which I am proud to say I have been part of my entire life. The same school community that inspired me to be a teacher, in a neighborhood that reflects diversity, poverty and the promise of amazing opportunities. These amazing nine and ten year olds are an inspiration to everyone who meet them. They are our future and I want to help each of them to achieve their dream.
My Project
My students have had to juggle organizing, and keeping track of their school supplies and materials at home for the past year. These storage bins will give each student a place to keep their materials organized. They will have all their materials in one place and be able to take the bins to their desks or a special spot to work on lessons. The carts will help teach organization, save time looking for materials and give each child a good feeling that they can take ownership of their own materials and their learning.
