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 very hard workers. They come from low income families but they demonstrate motivation to learn and succeed everyday. I am very proud of my class and I can see their potential in each and everyone of them. My school is a great school who supports their families and the students. Both the parents and teachers work together for the students needs. Our neighborhood is safe place where the students love and enjoy to live. I love my students!

My Project

The donations for this project will improve my classroom by reducing the amount of behavioral issues, because I will be able to provide them the opportunities to work collaboratively with others. My students will be able to use the smart board for the first time and that will motive them everyday to improve in reading and writing. My students need all support to get better results. I think that all my students will benefit from technology in their future and in order to be successful citizens. By receiving all this materials students will have a successful year and will make them ready for the following year.
