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

Hi! I teach 27 first graders at an all girls charter school in the South Bronx. Due to the current shutdown of our school, my students are at home receiving live instruction from me. They all have a tablet that was given to them by the school and some of my kids have a computer. Otherwise, my students would not have the adequate technology and supplies for learning at home. I have had to send them supplies and work packets through snail mail throughout these last two months.

My Project

I would like to send my students special treats and surprises through snail mail. My kiddos have been working so hard throughout all the changes and challenges that this pandemic has caused. I hope that these treats such as dolls, stickers and books will help to brighten their day while they are away from all their teachers and friends at school. These treats will help to celebrate and reward all of my students who have been turning in all their assignments and continue to work hard despite all the new challenges. Participation is key during remote learning and these incentives will help keep their participation at a high level. Most of all, I just want to brighten my student's day!
