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
I work in a high poverty area, in the Bronx, NY. My students are severely underserved, and my school has very limited resources. When the students find a task too difficult, they act out. I have noticed that when they 'get it,' they pay more attention. I want to teach the kids content plus skills. I service a self-contained, special education population with various disabilities. Some of the disabilities are Intellectual Disability, Learning Disability, ADHD, and Emotional Disturbance.
Most of my students are visual and kinesthetic learners; having lab materials will make the lessons more engaging for them.
My Project
Let's start teaching! But Wait! How can I do that if I am running around looking for a pen, a marker, making copies, looking for notebooks, folders, highlighters. There are so many things I used to think were basic supplies, but are harder for some students than others. Book bag drives are a big parts of some communities and theres a big reason for that, and it's because a lot of students do not really have the access to such supplies to have a seamless school year.
I am asking for things such as pens, highlighters, desk organizers, printing papers, label makers, dry erase markers, basic classrooms supplies to keep the classroom running smoothly so that we can focus on the learning.
My students should only focus on learning and studying, not wondering if they will be able to able to afford the list of supplies needed for the school year. I hope you can make this happen for us.
