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

My students are recent immigrants with limited or interrupted formal education (SLIFE). They have limited abilities in listening, reading, writing and speaking in both Spanish and English. The students are an amazing and sweet group of students who will benefit from all of the materials that I am requesting.

These hardworking students need extra resources to enhance their learning experiences at an accelerated rate.

There is an immense sense of urgency. Many of the students range in ages from 14-21. Therefore, their time in the program may be limited. Many of our students are over-age and have not been to school. We need to enhance their education because their time may be limited in this program. I want to provide the students with experiences they will remember so they will be lifelong learners. They are also missing years of schooling from their native countries.

My Project

Our focus in this program is enhancing students' abilities in Native Language literacy so that they can gain mastery in their own language. The materials that are being requested will help engage the students in a deeper understanding of the material and curriculum that needs to be covered. The purpose of this is to strengthen their language and academic deficiencies.

Our students do not have their own science classroom nor sufficient materials to provide them with the best learning experience.

We plan on creating a universal science lab for our students so we can have weekly hands-on experiences. I cannot even begin to describe how having a lab will enhance their experiences in school. We plan on the kids doing experiments to better their understanding of Biology. The students will need a microscope with slides to observe the small-scale world, and a laminating machine for the preservation of materials.
