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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The materials and supplies I am requesting for my students are things that they will use daily and will add extra engagement to their learning. I truly need your help with making it a success.

The dry-erase markers are paramount because students use them daily to express their learning at their desks.

In addition, to dry-erase markers, pencils are used just as much, and they run out quickly since I teach over 100 students. The games and manipulatives will be used to add the hands-on aspect to their learning and to help build conceptual understanding, especially in their most difficult unit such as geometry. They will see coordinate grids for most of the school year, so the graph paper will allow them to manipulate problems on ready-made grid paper. I always strive to provide a healthy space for my students and I, so desks are wiped in between classes using disinfectant wipes. All in all, each item from the list would be used towards fully educating and engaging my students.

The donations to this project will help to enhance engagement in my classroom. Since I teach math, which is usually an intimidating subject for many students, the goal is to provide them with tools to make it less stressful and allow them to connect to what they're learning. After my first year of teaching 8th grade last school year, I was able to assess what was necessary to enhance learning and what was needed to make the content more meaningful to them. I appreciate your support, and I know my students will.

Thank you!

Ms. Williams Augustin
