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 have the good fortune to teach Writing to 4th grade ESL students. My school is located in inner city Houston where Spanish is primarily spoken, and English is their second language. While the students are eager to learn, they have many challenges to overcome ranging from poor home environments, dangerous neighborhoods, gang influences, and language difficulties.

To our dismay, their enthusiasm has been dampened by hurricane Harvey.

Our school suffered extreme damage which ruined most learning materials in my classroom. I would like to replace some of the books, games, and classroom furniture, which were unrecoverable after the hurricane. I would like to be able to continue giving them the best education I can with the necessary equipment.

My Project

My classroom material was unrecoverable after Hurricane Harvey. Our school was damaged too severely for us to continue to use the building. Although we were relocated to another location, the classroom furniture was left behind.

I am slowly rebuilding my classroom library, but I need a place to display the books that looks appealing to the students.

The rolling cart and bookshelf will give the perfect place to place the bins containing the library books. The students will easily be able to browse through the library books searching for the ones that pique their interests. The rolling cart can be moved to various locations allowing me to maximize classroom space.
