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 keep me on my toes. Most of them are Spanish speaking English Language Learners. They offer a unique perspective and insight into every topic we study, and I often feel like I'm just as much a learner as their teacher. They're a lively bunch, and since I get to teach them year after year, we have grown quite close and we would all agree that we feel like a family.
Sometimes I forget that they have a challenging life outside of their 8am to 4pm school day.
Most of my students live in shelters or temporary housing. They receive free breakfast and lunch and "blessings" to take home in the evenings. It's hard to get by in New York, and the public school system has very much become a respite for young folks trapped in situations in which they have no control. I would do anything for my students, and that is why I am posting here on DonorsChoose.
My Project
Every single student in our school benefits from SchoolPace, a powerful progress tracking and assessment tool for reading. We use its embedded assessments to provide evidence of growth and readiness to master new goals. We use it to track learning every time we sit down to work with a student. This data provides real-time, actionable insight into the volume of reading being completed, the amount of growth being made, and which reading standards are being mastered. Teachers and school administrators access SchoolPace dashboards, reports, and graphs that show detailed information about each student's reading progress. SchoolPace is a powerful tool we use every day create learning action plans and refine instruction to suit each learner.
DonorsChoose is the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.
As a teacher-founded nonprofit, we're trusted by thousands of teachers and supporters across the country. This classroom request for funding was created by Mr. Moody Jr and reviewed by the DonorsChoose team.
