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 teach first grade to a class of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.

It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.

I teach 28 bright and beautiful first-graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade-level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.

My Project

Free play during recess times helps these students learn to work toward a goal, interact with other students, play on a team, and resolve disagreements. This make our free play time a dreaded event rather than a time they can have fun. Let's change that for my students! With these materials, my girls will have the opportunity to get their creative juices flowing. They can learn origami, book making and painting. My students need arts and crafts materials like stickers, blank books, play doh, kinetic sand and other materials to create beautiful projects during indoor recess.

My students love to engage in creative arts and crafts activities.

Please help them to see that there are fun, productive, and challenging things to do indoors! Your generous donation will be treasured in our classroom every day! Thank you so much for your support! It is greatly appreciated!
