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

The faces of the New York City classroom consist of students from Bangladesh, Yemen, Iran, Dominican Republic, Mexico and many other places to say the least. This is what my two classes of 6th graders look like. They have come to America for quality education and to escape unspeakable violence in some of their countries. Many of them speak very little English but are eager to learn speaks volumes. The photo is student created and won a prize for respect for all week. The students expressed themselves by identifying what respect means to them.

I've grown as an educator because of these students.

It's wonderful watching them progress in a country that offers them something more than their native home countries.

My Project

There are over 60 students that I see on a daily basis. The flu season is horrible and runny noises, coughs, sneezes and much more takes a lot to stay healthy. I cannot keep enough tissues in my classroom. The Lysol spray and Lysol wipes will keep the classroom clean and healthy. The tissues will give every child who sneezes something soft on their noses as opposed to hard school paper towels.

Tissues are simple supplies, however, they are a needed supply.

Giving my students the cleanest environment starts with the materials needed to make that happen. Lysol wipes, Lysol spray continues to assist in killing the flu viruses.
