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

My transitional kindergarten class consists of the younger kindergarten students.

Our Title I school is located in a low economic area.

One hundred percent of the students qualify for the free federal breakfast and lunch program. Most of my students come from families who do not speak English. My transitional kindergarten students are enthusiastic about learning and always try their best. I have seen their language, social and academic skills grow every day. They have shown me that they have the potential to exceed all expectations.

My Project

In our plans to go back to school during the Covid-19 pandemic, we need to take as many precautions as necessary to safeguard students from any germs. My young students need to be guided on how to social distance from each other to prevent infections. The walking rope is perfect for walking children down the halls or around school keeping children at a distance from each other.The hooks will be used to store away the walking ropes.

The Acrylic divider shield is also very convenient during one to one teaching.

The clear panels give teachers and students complete visibility and protection.

Please help me provide my students with all the materials needed for a safe return back to school. In advance I thank you for your time and support to education.
