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

My students are eagles of success. They aspire to be successful children; they love to get ahead and say positive things to others. In our classroom, we build trust and confidence. It is my goal to inspire my students never to stop dreaming.

I start by saying that as a first-grade teacher is a challenge working with kids that come from all sources of backgrounds and more these days, as we are dealing with lots of uncertainties.

This is my third year teaching, and I would love to create a positive environment and community in my class. As a teacher, it is essential to give different strategies and alternatives to learning.

My students come from all walks of life.

The children I teach all have aspirations and dreams. The students in my classroom, my school, and the community are constantly being challenged by the instabilities of their environment and lack of resources. These kids need to know they are loved, valued, and treasured.

I need your help to make my effort go even further. With your support, I hope to prepare Christmas presents for my students. My students deserve the best, and that's why I am counting on you to help me reach these goals. Remember, a simple act of kindness can make a difference in a child's life. I'm asking for toys like Legos to make excellent engineers, Play-doh, and fidget toys to help them with sensory. Professionals barbies for them to be able to dream big in their future.

I would love to provide Christmas presents for my students and bring happiness to them. This year I want to get them happiness at Christmas, without them having any worries. It is our goal to help families enjoy the Christmas holidays
