Celebrating 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

Hello everyone! My name is Ms. DaCosta, and I've been teaching for 16 years at a public school in the Bronx, New York. I have the pleasure of teaching a wonderful group of English Language Learners.

My students come from many ethnic backgrounds, but they have one thing in common.

They all understand and appreciate the many opportunities that life in the USA has available to them. They truly value their education. My students are extremely eager to learn and master the English language, along with math, ELA, science and social studies.

I am hoping that DonorsChoose will enable me to enrich the learning experiences of these wonderful children.

My Project

My class of English Language Learners often use photos and drawings to enhance their work. This helps them get their point across when they have difficulty finding the right vocabulary in English. They are in need of a color printer to publish these projects and writing pieces. A color printer will also help me illustrate the academic vocabulary my students need to be successful in school.

A wireless color printer is just what my students need to be able to publish their writing and other multimedia projects in class.

This will help make learning more fun, and give my students a greater sense of pride in their finished projects.
