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 have very big hearts and truly make do with what they have. For some, school is their safe haven from extremely poverty stricken and violent homes. My students are in a very low-income community. They are kind and loving but may not get all the things they need. I have really gotten to know these students in our building and their families very well. I have already learned that I have children who come from needy families. Some of my children come from split families where they may or may not see one or both parents. I am very lucky to be able to touch these kiddos' lives. They are very creative and love to be able to explore their learning world through my classroom.

Each child in the class has his or her own unique personality that has really brought our community together.

They are very creative and are starting to really enjoy the academic world and are improving every day.

My Project

This project is to supply the kids in my class with the essentials for the following school year. Many of the parents in our school do not have the resources that they need to in to survive from day to day. I want my little ones to come and get excited about learning. I want their parents to feel less stressed by not having to worry about their child's school supplies.

Supplies are essential to every learning environment.

Crayola Crayons are the best type of crayon and many students love to see more colors than the standard 8. Students need a writers notebook so the primary notebook is a wonderful thing for first grade students. Glue sticks, post-its, markers and dry erase markers. Art supplies that all these students need and often times are not able to go from year to year.
