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 Project
My students all come from low income house holds and living situations. Most do not have their own bedroom, or even their own place to sleep. They look forward to coming to school because they know it is their safe place. I try and make their classroom as cozy and welcoming as possible. With your time and donations to this project, I can create a more inviting and comforting environment for my classroom.
For this project, I am asking for new storage organization items and classroom decor to help make my class feel like a second home to my students.
I have a new comfy rug in my cart for the children to sit on and learn throughout the day. My children are small- ages 3 to 5 years old, so most of our time is spent on the carpet. I also have low light lamps in my cart because it creates a comfortable and conducive environment for the students to engage in their studies. I have a comfy chair for our safe place, which is where a student goes when they are dealing with an intense emotion and need to calm down with a teacher. Finally, I am asking for 2 new rolling chairs for my assistant and I. We spend almost 5 hours on our feet playing and teaching the children. We need these chairs in our classroom to sit on and do our lesson plans, anecdotes and plan. Everything I am asking for will be used daily!
I am forever grateful for this opportunity and platform to create a wish list for my class. I spend hundreds of dollars every year on necessities for my kiddos when the school does not have any more funding. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read my project.
