Help me give my students the gift of a fun read this holiday break!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Pereira's classroom raised $164
This project is fully funded
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.
My Students
My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day. My students are all different types of learners and have various backgrounds. I have students who do not speak English, students with disabilities, and some students who are homeless.
I teach at a Title I school in New York where 100 percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch.
Many of my students receive food and clothing from the school's charity drives. Despite so many hardships, my students are eager to learn and do their best. They want to be in school because they want to learn all they can so they can be successful one day.
My Project
Every year, I enjoy giving my students a small holiday gift, usually consisting of a book! The students are always looking forward to the holiday season because they know they will get some kind of treat, toy or books from their teacher.
Most of the students in my classroom are homeless, or live in temporary housing.
This past pandemic year has caused many of these students to go without fun activities at home even more so that a regular year. Getting this project funded would ensure that everyone in my classroom gets a copy of a humorous and entertaining book to read over the the winter break.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
