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

I have been teaching in the same school in the Bronx for the past 17 years. I work with some amazing students every year. These students are very resilient. A lot of them come from really tough situations outside of school and yet they come to school every day with smiles on their faces and ready to learn. Most of them come from homes where English is not the first language spoken therefore it can be hard for them to get the academic support they need.

These children face so many struggles in their lives that I am always trying to figure out new ways to support them.

Everyday Its a battle to level the playing field for these children. Their lack of support and supplies may slow them down a bit but it definitely doesn't stop them. They push through any challenge that is thrown their way. I clearly cannot provide everything these children need on my own, therefore, I need the help of others to provide my students with the things they so richly deserve.

My Project

The materials that I am asking for will help my students to be better learners in the classroom. I am asking for a voice amplifier. Between the masks, air purifiers, and the air conditioners it is really hard for the students to hear me until I am practically screaming. I am also asking for some clipboards with a whiteboard feature so that I can have the students solve problems from their seats and I will be able to assess them from there without having to walk around to every student during this time of covid.
