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.
This is my seventh year as a teacher, and every year, I continue to learn. Through the supportive staff and the amazing opportunities to grow as a teacher, I can't see what there isn't to love.
My students are what drives me every single day to not only be a better person but to be a better teacher.
Working at a Title I school, my students come from many different backgrounds, but coming from a different background has not stopped them from wanting to come to school and bettering themselves as students. Their enthusiasm and love for learning are the light on the darkest of days. Although they all learn in different ways, they always want to help each other within the classroom and outside of the classroom. As a teacher, I couldn't want anything more.
My Project
Working at a Title 1 school is a blessing. To see the want to learn from each and every student will put a smile on anyone's face. Lately, our school has some students from Venezuela move into classrooms.
Not knowing the language can make school a scary place, which is why I am requesting Pocket Talk devices and lanyards.
This device easily translates languages automatically so that teachers can communicate with their English Language Learners, while also allowing the English Language Learners to communicate with the teacher.
Gaining the Pocket Talks will aide both the students and the teachers to make learning a positive and comfortable environment for our newest students.
More than half of students from low‑income households
