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

My students attend a pre-kindergarten through fifth grade elementary school in New York. My students attend school in one of the poorest congressional districts in the nation-an area with a very high concentration of poverty. Most, if not all, of my students are eligible for free lunch. They are a hard working group of first graders who are persistent and determined to do well in school. They are a group of hard workers who need essential resources to help them do their best work at home and at school.

My Project

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away."

My students are learning about the importance of daily attendance.

They know and understand that when you miss a day from school, you will miss a lot. Attendance matters! My students need facial tissues, hand soap, disinfecting wipes, and hand-sanitizer to kill the germs that cause the sneezing, sniffing, and coughing that they say usually comes with the arrival of cooler weather. The alcohol pads and disinfecting wipes will be used to wipe off headphones in our listening center, keyboards and other commonly used items.

Ah choo! That is a sound that can be heard in my classroom nearly every day. The cold and flu season can be particularly hard on my students. When my students miss a day from school, they miss a lot--attendance matters. Being marked present is an essential first-step to providing them with a quality education.

With your help, my students can use the liquid soap to learn proper hand washing techniques and have facial tissues for running noses. These resources are essential for promoting overall health and wellness--because daily attendance matters!
