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.
I teach an extraordinary group of middle school students in the Bronx. I believe that my students and all students have so much potential and I want to use that to enhance their future both inside and out of education. My students are very diverse both in their variety of cultures, their needs and their learning styles which makes my job the best in the world.
My students constantly keep me on my toes and their curious minds teach me something new every day.
Most of my students are living in poverty; most of my students have insecure housing; most of my students are either immigrants or first-generation Americans; and most of my students have experienced trauma in their lives; all of my students are exceptional individuals who show up each and every day, ready to learn.
My Project
My students need various paper types in order to get copies of assignments, activities and notes. Specifically, we color code rubrics, take home assignments and reference cards. We use legal paper to make lab manuals, and letter paper for notes and class work. Students need a new classroom pencil sharpener as our last one broke! Additionally, in order to keep the classroom clean and healthy during this flu season, we need Lysol! It is extremely challenging being so under resourced for simple things like paper goods. My students and I greatly appreciate all of the classroom support and are very grateful.
