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 ages 8-9. The majority of my students are ELL (English Language Learners) whose parents work most of the day and into the evening. They spend most of their day in school, and in after-school programs. Sadly, my students do not get a lot of adult attention or support and come to school in need of emotional support as well as academic support.

The students that I have are hardworking, determined, grateful, and curious.

These are just a few words that describe the amazing young people that enter my classroom each day.

My students try to learn to the best of their abilities but need a lot of small group work. They are eager to learn yet oftentimes when they leave here they no longer have the English support they need. I try to engage my students in the classroom as much as I can by providing a variety of activities and send them with things to do at home to support the work we did in class. They are our future, and I want to give them a great start to their long successful careers.

My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We need a chart stand to hang up our class anchor charts and the classroom supplies organization chart to display Choice Boards for math activities. The colorful bins and turn in your work bin will be used to have students completed work and notes from home turned in. The looseleaf paper and Astrobrights paper will be used to write about Math and complete projects. The Ikea frames will be used to view our schedule of the day and any important information they need to know. The dry erase sleeves and expo makers will be used to practice math skills and solve problems. The rolling cart will be used so students can file their work into a portfolio. All of these items will provide them with a way to engage in group/partnership conversations.

I know with your assistance my students will be able to access their education in a comfortable environment.

As it takes a village to raise our children, any help is appreciated, and I am forever grateful for all the contributions. Thank you.
