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 am a dual language first grade teacher in a Title I school in Williamsburg. The students at my school are creative students who enjoy learning in English and Spanish. These students come to school every day ready to learn. Many of my students come from single-parent working households which means some of them do not have access to supplies needed to maintain health and safety guidelines set by the CDC.

These students rely on support from the school and teachers to help them feel safe and supported during these unprecedented times.

My Project

Returning to school this year will be a little different. This school year, parents have a lot more to worry about; for instance, whether their child's classroom is a safe learning environment. Through this project, I want to relieve the stress of parents having to worry about that.

Being able to assist parents with providing supplies for their child will release the stress of not being able to provide safety for their child.

It is essential for me to be prepared for my incoming first graders. As we know, students are required to have their individual supplies. Having the storage bins will make it easier for students to carry their supplies on a day-to-day basis. The cleaning supplies are crucial in order to provide a safe and healthy environment for my students. Having these materials in the classroom will ensure that the students will not have to share supplies.
