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 Project

It is my opinion that educators in the Special Education sector are not provided with proven methods that are needed to teach students with disabilities.

I find myself constantly searching for resources I can use to ensure that I am meeting the needs of all my students.

I am requesting a small library of professional texts related to best practices in reading and writing instruction for students with disabilities. These are areas that needs to see growth. With these texts, I will have the professional resources necessary to start to see real growth in my students in terms of their academic performace in reading and writing.

Mrs. Blake PS 392 Bronx Delta School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
