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 am committed to reducing the number of worksheets that my first graders use on a daily basis. Instead, we are using interactive learning centers. The printer & ink will enable me to create interactive centers they can love and learn from! However, we are in an extremely low income neighborhood and my students can barely afford to purchase their own school supplies. I buy most of the supplies out of my own pocket (which I don't mind because they appreciate it so much). Over 95% of the students qualify for free lunch and over 90% receive public assistance. Knowing the future of my students depends on it, I try to provide as much opportunities to let their creativity out!

My Project

I am in desperate need of a new printer and ink for my class. I have resorted to emailing colleagues who will print for me and then I make my way to the office to put work in for copies. I usually print homework for my students so they don't waste time copying and can get right to work.

I also like to print class notes from my lesson as a resource for students and parents to use for homework.

I also use my personal printer to generate immediate differentiated activities during a lesson where I notice kids are struggling. This becomes my small group activities or extra support to send home.

At this time, students are copying from the smartboard and doing practice sets with partners as needed.

Modifications and adaptations to the classroom and curriculum, as well as individualized communication supports, are necessary for ensure student success but also requires additional resources, and supplies.

In a school with limited budget/resources, these supplies are not readily/if at all available.

With your help, I can provide what I need for my students without risking instructional time to copy. Every second counts!
