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

I teach third grade in a Title I school in Long Island City, New York. My students come from a very low income area and most live in public housing. Many live in shelters as well. Many of my students come from poverty. All the students receive free breakfast and lunch. My school is a community school, so we help meet many of the families needs. We have provided a dentist, mental health counseling, and even a food pantry.

Despite the challenges that my students face, they are positive, motivated, kind, and fun loving.

They love to learn and appreciate the little things. They love to read and they love to learn using technology.

My students come into class everyday with smiles on their faces and always willing to lend a hand. They are kind to each other and to anyone they meet. My hope is to give them everything they need to help them learn and keep those faces smiling!

My Project

A Cricut machine will be an asset to our classroom and my students' learning. It will allow the students to bring their project based learning to life. They will be able to create T-Shirts, different lettering, decals for mugs, and so many other things. The students will have the opportunity to learn how to use this machine and get their creative minds to work. This machine will be perfect for social studies projects as well as science projects. Since my students do not normally get art class, this will enhance the art they get in their everyday classroom!
