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 the best students who are full of energy and excited to learn. They enjoy when we get creative, changing things up by doing class activities/projects that are hands-on, especially technology. They are a pretty diverse group of kids with different backgrounds and cultures. My kids have the potential to be someone amazing when they grow up, they just need the extra resources and tools to accomplish it.

My school is an incredible charter school in an economically challenged area that cares about the students and teachers.

While they ensure the kids receive the necessary materials, we need some help, especially after natural disasters, in ensuring they get extra resources that will let them have a more hands-on experience. When my students enter the room, I want them to be encouraged to strive for their best, continue to be enthusiastic and happy with STEM-related projects in class, and have access to the latest technology that will inspire their future careers.

My Project

As a reading teacher, it is important to encourage my students to learn to love reading. By donating novels to my classroom, you are providing a lifelong learning experience that many students at my school would never have.

Novel studies expand the imagination and fuel the desire to read more and read often.

Many of my students are from an impoverished area of Florida and are English Language Learners. These students do not have exposure to different types of literature. Through reading and studying different genres with their classmates, you are enhancing their education in multiple ways.
