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

100 percent of our students receive free breakfast, lunch, and supper. Most of our scholars are English as a Second language learners. I currently have students from different countries, different formal education experiences, and different types of learning. Many are coming to this country after having traumatic experiences in their home country and are living with family members other than their parents. Regardless of these circumstances, my students are hardworking and eager to learn. Our school and our classroom is a happy, safe, loving, and important place for them.

My Project

My school is pursuing becoming a Leader in Me School. I need materials to help educate myself on this curriculum. The Leader In Me is a whole school transformation process that focuses on teaching students to take charge of their own education and life goals. I need these materials for me to understand how to implement the program so I can help lead these students down this path.

The Leader in Me will help my school break a cycle of kids thinking they are not good enough, will create critical thinkers, and will transform our school culture, families and community.

This program will help our kids see that they have just as much to offer the world as anyone else.

The materials I am asking for are books about the 7 Habits of Healthy Kids. These 7 habits include being proactive, beginning with the end in mind, putting first things first, thinking win-win, synergizing, seeking first to understand and then to be understood, and sharpening the saw. By helping with the project, you will help me to help my students, our school, our families, our communities and the future!
