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

My students are wonderful students. They are so eager to learn. They adhere to classroom rules and generally stay on task. However, as we know, students today are under enormous pressure. The expectation set for students today is very high. Every year, students in my school are expected to reach the NYS goals for their grades regardless of the challenges that they face due to their circumstances. Many of my students have economic challenges and lack parental support. As a teacher, it is frustrating to know that many of our students are at a disadvantage, but must still meet their state standards and expectations. The reality is that not all students have school supplies that are needed for school. I also have students with IEPs and English Language Learners.

These students need to develop and catch up to their grade expectations, and these materials can help develop their academic potential.

My Project

Having a vacuum to help keep our rug clean weekly will help ensure that the children will be sitting on a clean surface. Also, cleaning the carpet is a good way to increase the lifespan and maintain a healthy indoor environment. A carpet can hold bugs and other allergens. Regular vacuuming can take care of loose dirt, pet hair, and other debris, but deep cleaning is important to prevent the growth of fungi, bacteria, and mold. I also want to make sure that the children that have allergies are not affected by carpet we have in our classroom.
