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

Our school is a Title I school located in Fullerton, California. We serve a diverse ethnic population with 46% of the total population being identified as English Language Learners.

In collaboration with our families and community, the entire staff is committed to provide all students with an education that is rigorous, relevant, and personalized in a safe and nurturing environment.

We pledge to work together to ensure our students develop into confident, self-directed, and motivated learners, able to fulfill desired opportunities as upstanding, productive, and honorable members of our society.

Additionally, the staff believes that children are learners. They learn at different paces and in different ways, so instructional practices will reflect this. Since we believe that children learn best in a positive environment, the instructional setting will feature structured classrooms that are safe places for children to express themselves, show respect and be respected.

When students leave their grade level each year, they will successfully have taken full advantage of all learning opportunities. We work at building prior knowledge, growing emotional and intellectual development, encouraging school and home cooperation, and providing sound instruction in required standards.

My Project

Our class uses a student store as part of our classroom reward system. Our student store is aimed at teaching the students how to mange inventory, make proper change, save to purchase more items, as well as how to shop and save.

The primary goal of the student store is to offer all students an opportunity to build their financial literacy, to help them with real-world applicable situations.

The items I am seeking include erasers shaped like animals, friendship bracelets, and novelty pens. These items are just a few items my students would LOVE! Additionally, candy is a sure treat any 9-year old would love to eat! This donation will help restock our student store and continue our rewards program!
