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 a very determined bunch. Our school is in the poorer part of Houston. A lot of people just assume my students do not want to do school and just want to go work in a job that does not require any education. That is farther from the truth. A lot of my students want to be the first in their family to go to college. They want to get out of poverty and want to succeed so bad. It is a bright bunch of students who need more resources to achieve their goals, whatever that may be.

My Project

Getting two different text books will help the students who want the extra push to do so. These books would mainly be used in study halls to help them pass the APUSH exam. The map I would use to help the students understand geography and where certain events in American History happened.The dry erase markers I would use A LOT for writing things on the board. The poster paper would be used for engaging group projects. Most of my students can not afford poster paper. Everything used would go to great use and it would help me achieve my goal of helping all students succeed. In Texas AP US History is state tester and also AP students are studying for the AP exam. Lots of pressure, but they can do it with your generous help.
