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

The students in my 6th and 7th grade classes are motivated and eager to learn. They appreciate being challenged and push one another to always think outside of the box. While many of them come from impoverished neighborhoods, they are more than willing to come to school each day engaged and be active participants in their learning! To add, their excitement and curiosity to learn comes to life in every task given. Whether in class or home, they choose to succeed every day.

My Project

Due to my students being 2 or more grade levels below reading level, they would benefit from these activities. By having them practice their reading skills, I am able to build confidence in my students. Furthermore, this is a great way to make learning fun and exciting after such a rough time during the pandemic.

As per the PPE, the school is located in a neighborhood with one of the highest positivity rates in the Bronx, therefore the students need to feel safe at school.

I am hoping this project gets funded and the students can succeed this year.
