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

Many of my students come from single-parent households and low-income families. 100% of our school receives free breakfast and lunch. Regardless of the stability many of my students lack in their home lives, they still remain positive about the world and find it full of wonder. Our school lacks a real cafeteria, auditorium, gym or science/computer lab. This makes our classroom the place our children spend a large majority of their time. Due to that, it is very important that I try to make it as inviting and functional as possible in order to make it useful is a variety of ways.

My Project

“Is Pluto really a dwarf planet? Why does a horse have so much hair? Why does a d look like a p upside down? Can I have a hug?” Like most children, the students in my class are full of questions. No matter how hard I try keeping up with them, one thing I can never supply enough of is my attention. Luckily we get some one-on-one discussion time during guided reading to really explore their thinking.

Please help fund a new guided reading table so we can make better use of that time.

My students came to me with a love for reading, and I’ve watched that blossom this year. Unfortunately, it isn’t always easy for them. This will help our class reach our reading goals.

The seat sacks requested will serve to keep my students' belongings more organized and create more space within our classroom. Currently, students are keeping their books in cubbies that are falling apart and taking up too much room. Since our classroom is used not only for general instruction but also as an art room, gym room, science lab, and recess space, it is especially important that we maximize every inch of space. Please help us to do so!
