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
My students are extremely eager about learning. They come to school every day with smiles on their faces, joy in their hearts, and energy to last us all day. My students consistently give their best effort despite circumstances at home. We are located just outside of Boston; a small city that is rapidly increasing in population. Our school district is home to over 7,200 students from grades K-12. The entire district provides free breakfast and lunch for every student.
My little brains have lived through a lot in their little lives; multiple of my students have walked through divorce, homelessness, hunger, poverty, illness, death, and horrific tragedy for such precious little ones.
We are a team in third grade and these children motivate me just as much as I try to motivate them.
My Project
As a first year teacher, I am trying to slowly equip my classroom with the basic necessities to enhance my students learning. I am requesting this Colored Pencil Area Rug for my classroom because my students need an area where they can sit and read independently. This rug would be used for small group instruction, and read aloud's as a class.
I chose this specific rug because of its bright colors.
This rug would bring life to my classroom and my students will use it every single day. I want to thank you in advance for your generous donation. I am humbled that so many amazing people care about the well being of my 20 little humans.
