Bringing Literacy to Life

My students need a color printer to print out reading workstation activities. I teach students between prekindergarten and 5th grade and I have to change out the activities.

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

In a typical day I see students from prekindergarten to 5th grade. Each grade level presents its challenges. With my prekindergarten students I have to motivate them to become readers and with my older students I work towards keeping the spark for reading alive.

My school is a Title I school in an urban school district.

Despite having a large population of at-risk and minority students, our school consistently performs very well on state and national exams. The middle school that is on our campus and that consists of a large portion of our elementary students has even gone to be recognized as a National Blue Ribbon school. Our students perform well because we maintain high standards of excellence and we expect them to be successful. Our students' parents support our school, our teachers, and our administrators, and this is why our school has been so consistently successful.

My Project

The requested color printer will help my upper grade students print out their own publications. In my class, I have my older students create their own short stories and the color printer will enable them to print out their work and feel a sense of pride and ownership for their hard work. My younger students work more on reading workstations which include story sequencing, identifying character, setting, plot and retelling. The color printer will be necessary for me to print out story props such as masks, vocabulary cards and other story telling props. Our school currently only has a handful of color printers and access to one is limited. Having a color printer in my classroom will make printing so much easier and will enable me to maximize instructional time.

Your donation to my project will help to maximize instructional time.

Seeing my students' faces when their work comes to life will be such a rewarding experience and I can't wait to see that happen. My younger students will get the chance to see stories come to life and they will learn to love reading and become life long readers.
