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 very diverse and attend an NYC Public School located in the Bronx, NY. Many come from immigrant single-parent households and are faced with a host of challenges. I am proud to watch them grow and learn despite the many obstacles they face outside of the classroom.
Most of the students come from impoverished homes and lack many necessary resources that most families take for granted.
Unfortunately, research proves that there is a link between poor academic performance and poverty. Our school becomes their safe haven where they feel valued and respected.
My Project

With the mask mandates in place, I need to amplify my voice so many of my students, some with speech impairments, can enjoy our book club reads including the One and Only Ivan.
This project will ensure that each students has their own copy. Listening to each other read the book will be made much easier with the wireless microphone headset. As we read students will write their thoughts and opinion with their new writing journals. They will decorate them with awesome stickers too. Students will continue to remain safe by wearing the right size kn95 masks specifically designed for children. As we continue to socially distance, students will use dry erase boards to show their answers, and will feel like their classroom is a safe place to grow and learn!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
