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
The students in my class have a learning disability which does not hinder them from performing and learning the materials being taught. They feel inspired, determined, and always ready for a new and engaging challenge. These students are very cooperative, respectful and willing to improve their academic achievement. Even though some may not have the best penmanship or the greatest reading ability, they still put forth maximum effort in order to succeed. These students are primarily from homes where English is a second language so they have to overcome that language barrier.
My students are not as fortunate as others.
Sometimes they come to school without the necessary materials and supplies needed to begin working because they cannot afford to purchase these things. My school demographic population is comprised of 97.6% Hispanic students, and 98.8% of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch.
For this project my focus is my Family and Consumer Science class. In this class my students learn the basic essentials needed to function into adulthood. Some of the things they learn about includes: family, culinary, sanitation and safety and social emotional.
My Project
These materials will give my students and class a great start for the school year. Family and Consumer Science is an elective course that's newly added to our school. We have some equipments but lack the necessary supplies to make the class function productively. My students are really excited about having this elective course and look forward to showing off their cooking skills. The composition books is a requirement for the course and most students cannot afford to purchase one this will lessen the burden off the parents by providing the students in need with one so they are prepared and ready for a successful year.
More than half of students from low‑income households
