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.

I teach a group of special students who work really hard to accomplish their goals. As a new teacher they have inspired me in different ways. I am a Special Education teacher. I teach 3/4/5/ graders in an elementary school. My students are categorized as (MR). In spite of this categorization they are willing to learn and to improve in every subject. My students extra effort to learn is extraordinary. Their every day effort has inspired me to be there to help them achieve their goals. I enjoy looking at them learning and improving as the days pass. I would love to be able to have a more comfortable, colorful and inviting environment where they can continue to improve and move up in their reading levels.

My students love stories and books. Unfortunately, they cannot read them themselves. Because their low functioning status, they struggle with reading everyday. I have a goal for my students and I am working extra hard with them to continue improving and reading everyday so one day they can enjoy a story that they can read themselves. My students are reading low level books at this time, but they are working hard to improve their reading levels and they are positive that they can achieve the goal.

My students will benefit a great deal with a new and colorful, comfortable carpet where they can sit and read their favorite books.

With your support my students are going to be able to enjoy a more inviting environment. My students need your support to continue growing as individuals and to be able to become better readers. With your support my students are going to be able to enjoy their reading experience and you are going to make it possible for them to feel that there are people out there who care about them and care about their learning experiences.
