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

I teach curious, intelligent, amazing children, in a Title I school, in the South Bronx. Teaching children early on, how to save and invest their money, will be a life skill that will keep on 'giving'! Let me be honest with these amazingly generous donors. I was planning on asking for headphones, for the laptops that are used in my Science class, for when the children conduct research etc. Then, I read that there was a 'Donors Choose Match' for projects based on financial literacy. I immediately thought of how all things in life are connected in some way, especially in Science & Mathematics! Next, I thought about a project in which the students had to try to create a 'fictional budget', to plan a trip to the moon. Next, I 'Googled" the term, financial literacy. I was first, pleasantly surprised to see such an array of books for children, about money, savings, and even investing?! Then, I was a little saddened to realize that the school where I teach, has never seen such books. What better way to fund a much needed Financial Literacy program, (when a project like this is getting double funding too!)!

The assortment of books, about financial education, I would like for my students, will educate them about making money, wisely spending money, saving their money, and even investing their money for their futures!!

A practical, and a much needed life skill, that will be priceless...
