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 at a middle school in the infamous East zone of Fort Myers, Florida. The East zone is one of the neediest zones in Fort Myers. A lot of the students come from migrant parents and unstable housing situations. The school is made up of about 28% of students who identify as Caucasian, 16% of students who identify as African- American, 54% of students who identify as Hispanic, and 2% as other. About 80% percent of our students receive free or reduced-price lunch.

In a school where students have so many different needs, access can mean and look like a lot of things.

My students lack appropriate access to technology. This leads to my students having a lack access to information about the real world.

My Project

The materials I asked for will help me create an effective learning environment. In this effective learning environment students are learning at all times. Also, with these resources we will make sure to take advantage of our biggest enemy, time. I am requesting toner ink since ink is a resource that is sometimes not available at my school. I feel that instead of having my students copy down word problems, equations, and charts I can make copies, so that we can make sure to take advantage of time. As the semester goes on glue, markers and pencils also become an issue. A lot of my students will come to school without a pencil or materials that are essential for lessons.

By receiving the supplies I listed I am ensuring that all students learn in my class.

The class set of Algebra Tiles manipulatives I asked for will help me further my students' understanding of algebra.
