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
Imagine hearing a child say, "Can I take an apple home? We don't have a lot of food in my house."
My students are growing up in an unsafe, extremely economically disadvantaged neighborhood.
As Kindergartners, this is the foundation of their experience in school. My students are learning to love school through our exciting hands-on, experience-based classroom. Unfortunately, my school is lacking tremendously in resources and funding, and we were provided with hardly any materials.
My students need the proper materials, resources, and furniture to succeed in school!
My Project
My students and I are moving up to Kindergarten together, and we need new furniture for our classroom! My students need a comfortable place to sit and read, and the couch with storage would provide exactly that. We also need the proper shelves for books and manipulatives so that we can make sure that our classroom is organized and children know where materials belong. Our classroom also needs a half-moon table so that we can meet in small guided reading groups for more personal instruction.
My students deserve to have the proper furniture in our classroom to store all of our supplies!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
