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

Our classroom consists of 20 energetic, kind, and capable 3rd graders who face unique challenges due to struggles in their Kensington neighborhood, the inequitable funding of Philadelphia Public Schools, and the ramifications of two years of Covid. It is composed of 100% students of color; almost half are multilingual, and approximately 30% receive special education services.

They are passionate about learning and arrive each day excited to be there.

As a class, they are about making a difference in the world and speaking out against injustice. Yet, their interests range; the class has avid readers, artists, athletes, scientists, mathematicians, and even an aspiring comedian! They are funny, sincere, and full of zest for life! The only thing at school slowing these students down on their meteoric rise is access to adequate learning materials.

100% of our students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and we often find ourselves short on things like pencils, paper, books, and the like. With the right resources, these students are future leaders and change-makers!

My Project

I am requesting ten Chromebooks for the classroom and a charging station. The computers will enable students to conduct online research, type and edit their writing, ulitlize adaptive learning technology which addresses each students individual learning needs during centers work, and play math games. These Chromebooks are essential learning tools for my 21st-century learners. They will use these to practice their technology skills as well as to publish their writing projects to broad audiences, view math lessons tailored to their individual needs, conduct research on topics they care about and have fun! These devices will allow me to give each student the lesson they are ready for while keeping our classroom light on printed paper supplies.
