Providing for Newcomer Students

Help me give my students the resources that they deserve. My goal is to make my Title I ELA-S classroom an equitable space for my fifth graders who have a range of high needs.

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 Project

I am a Title I ELA-S fifth grade teacher, and the majority of my students are Venezuelan refugees. I also serve migrant students from Honduras, Cuba, Peru, Costa Rica, Mexico, El Salvador, and Colombia.

I aim to provide them everything they need to learn and grow, and thanks to the overflow of donations from my original project I have added books my students love and other supplies for our class.

Thank you so much for your generosity and consideration! My students are the bravest and most capable human beings that I know, and they deserve the same resources as all other children.
