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

I teach a wonderful class of 25 third-graders. They are excited, energetic, and enthusiastic. My students love school, and are trying their best to stay focused on their learning with distance learning.

We are a Title I, low-performing school with a majority of English-language learners.

As we get ready to begin the new school year with distance learning, it is apparent that the way we teach has changed considerably, compared to our classroom teaching. Having access to high-quality, teacher-created online lesson plans and other resources will help us to meet the needs of our students during this new phase of our distance learning.

My Project

For this project I am requesting a $100 gift card from TeachersPayTeachers to buy engaging, and fun resources to keep my students learning. The resources I can buy at TPT will allow me to differentiate the lessons, tasks, and assignments to better meet my students' needs.

Every teacher spends so much out of their own pockets for resources and spends so much time creating resources.

As a teacher, I am able to get inspiration from other teachers that share their resources on TPT. Having access to select appropriate content for my students from over 4 million teacher-created resources would be extremely helpful at this time. Some of the resources that would benefit my students include:

-Third Grade Digital Math Centers BUNDLE for Google Classroom

-Place Value Project | Distance Learning | Google Classroom

-Back to School Activities - All About Me - Google Classroom Distance Learning

-3rd Grade Language Interactive Notebook (Common Core aligned)

-Social Emotional Learning, Social Skills, & Character Education 3-5

Please help me access the tools we need to provide an excellent distance learning curriculum for my students. Thank you for your kindness and for supporting education.
