Celebrating 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 are classified as special education students. They are classified with different disabilities, most prominently speech and language difficulty. My school receives students from the homeless shelter. The school also provides uniforms, food, and various other supplies to the students who are housed in homeless shelters. My school's population is made up of 47% English Language Learners.
My students are low-level readers but have a great passion for books, a passion for learning, and they try really hard despite their disability.
The students in my class come from all cultures, such as Ghana, Puerto Rico, and American. My students smile every day and are eager to learn new things. They like to use the fine motor skills to create and construct things.
Despite my students' disabilities, I push them hard to come close to grade level in the content area. I always tell my students a disability is a condition, it doesn't define who you are. So, with that being said, I have high expectations for my students.
My Project
These materials are needed for my students to be prepared for school and complete their academic work. Many of my students reside in homeless shelters or come from low income households. Many of my parents are not able to supply the basic school supplies for their child.
So, with the use of notebooks, pencils, Post-its, and other basic materials, my students from financially struggling households will be able to have the supplies needed to do their academic work.
These materials would allow relief from parents who are in a financial situation breathe easier knowing that these supplies have been provided for their child.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
