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 are unique individuals who come to school eager to learn each and every day. Each one of them learns best through the use of a variety of teaching techniques and approaches to help meet their individual needs. They enjoy being challenged despite the challenges they face in their day-to-day lives.

Their courage is best defined by their ability to do something they know is difficult.

Seeing my students persevere to overcome difficulties inspires me to continue to find new ways to aid in their academic success.

My Project

This printer will allow us to print and copy student work for our lessons and activities without losing valuable instructional time. This printer will allow me to make the most of my classroom by creating a classroom that has a necessary essential resource!

Often times it is challenging to make copies due to a line at the copy machine and this copier would eliminate all the stress and hassle of trying to make copies throughout the day.

As a special education teacher, it would also allow constant contact and communication with my parents by having documents prepared to send home when necessary. Overall this printer would be a great way to give my students the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment that comes from seeing their hard work in printed form.
