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 diversity. They are as unique and proud as the community that surrounds them. However, with this diversity comes varying needs, interests and opportunities.

My students are extremely talented and artistic.

There are so many details that my students must know by heart and flashcards are a prove way of memorizing the key details.

They enjoy learning through various methods. While they are stuck with me in a classroom for 45 minutes we like to break up the class by moving from station to station. Students are responsible for their own learning. They learn new vocabulary words and terms at these stations through textbooks, videos, music and many more. Cramming does not work, reinforcement every day is one key to student success.

My Project

My students come from all over New York City and represent a diverse cross-section of New York City. Most have one thing in common. They all love art and they all love to play.

However, not all have equal access.

These socks, hats and coats will be for students without the support to afford their own. This idea was inspired by a student that came to me distraught about his inability to change before school because he had no warm coat to come to school. Every day she would wear the same clothes to school.

By giving students the tools they need to comfortable walking to school, we are empowering our students to make healthy choices like joining a team, going to the park or walking instead of taking the bus. Your support will give opportunity to students that don’t have the basics to succeed.
