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 full of energy, outspoken, helpful, unique, and respectful. They love to help each other, come upstairs for peer tutoring, and to have lunch with me. Class 502 are such loving individuals! I enjoy how they support one another and have discussions if they are in disagreement with something.

My Project

Currently, we are in a pandemic and it is important that the class is sanitized on a daily basis. We run through wipes very quickly during the week. I find it necessary to wipe down the tables and chairs first thing in the morning and at the end of the school day. Lastly, several students of mine are not able to bring school supplies to school because of financial hardships. I try to keep handy pencils and notebooks in my classroom. I am asking if you would please help support my classroom with the supplies previously mentioned. Thanks in advance.
