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 20 energetic fourth graders in my New York City classroom. Many of the children come from low-economic households, but they have big dreams. They understand the importance of a good education. Most of the students attend after-school programs as well, so they spend the majority of their day in school.

My students work both in homogeneous groups and in heterogeneous groups in order to accomplish their daily learning targets.

We not only focus our academic goals, but on our social-emotional goals as well. We are involved with the Leader in Me program and practice our 7 Habits of Happy Kids. We understand that in order to be successful in school, we must always try our best. We motivate each other and work as a team.

My Project

It's that time of year! Back to School! This year we are all returning to in person instruction. We are both excited and a little nervous because we are still dealing with COVID. We want to develop good personal hygiene habits, so we can stay healthy and be able to focus on our education.

It is important to keep our classroom environment safe and sanitized.

This is why we are asking for antibacterial cleaners, paper towels and a hands-free soap dispenser. We would also like for each of us to have a personal kit filled with individual size tissue packets, antibacterial wipes, and hand sanitizer. Last, but not least we also need disposable masks and a digital thermometer.

Thank you for taking the time to read our request. Please feel free to share it with your friends. We hope that you and your family stay safe!
