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
This year I am teaching 3rd grade.
I am so excited to sow into these eager growing minds.
English is a second language for many of these students. They work hard and want to be successful in and out of the classroom. They will benefit from any support a donation could offer.
My students live in a low-income area with 98% qualifying for free lunch.
Most of my students live well below poverty so their parents do not have the means to support a Parent Teacher Association. Many activities and resources are funded directly by the teachers.
These exceptional students may learn differently; however, they are high achievers that never give up. The fight in them makes it easy to advocate for them to have the best.
When the storm devastated our community and displaced us for a week, it really changed the way I think. I realized more than ever how much structure and consistency we provide for our students.
My Project
Versatiles is a hands-on skills practice with a self-checking answer system. This system has changed the way I structure my lessons and how my students engage. The ideal lesson would begin with whole group instruction. My students would then go into groups where they would use the literacy Versatiles. Versatiles creates a safe learning environment that increases student confidence. Confidence will help my students close those reading fluency and comprehension gaps. When gaps close a more inclusive education environment is acquired. Giving these young people the power to guide their education will change their lives and the lives of everyone they will meet. This is where the magic happens!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
