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 an enthusiastic and motivated group of 4th graders in a self-contained (small class) special education classroom. We LOVE learning and we do so in different ways - seeing, hearing, touching and discussing. My class is a diverse group of learners with challenges such as autism, mental retardation, learning disabilities, speech and language impairments, cognitive delays and learning English as a second language. I strive every day to engage students in learning with entertaining and motivating lessons that capture their attention and spark their thinking. To accomplish this, I need to use many colorful visuals, tactile items and multimedia daily.

In order to set-up and maintain my dynamic classroom, I use all available resources and frequently go above and beyond to promote a conducive learning environment.

This has become very difficult considering tight budgetary constraints and limited resources at my Title 1 school. Therefore, I am asking for help in providing the supplies and resources I need to continue to promote an effective and enjoyable learning experience for my students.

My Project

My students need an all-in-one color printer to help them publish their writing in an exciting and meaningful way. Having this resource in the classroom will encourage my students to write across all the academic areas. They will enjoy writing and creating their graphic novels, stories and projects since they will be able to see their work displayed in such a visually appealing way!

Differentiation of instruction is key to helping my students succeed!

The all-in-one printer will allow me to create instructional materials to meet the diverse learning needs of my students. Their needs change daily, and the paper will allow me to create learning activities that are adapted to their levels of readiness. The supply caddies will help me to organize supplies for learning centers and project based learning activities.

Our school is in a low-income, high-need community. One hundred percent of our students receive free lunch. The truth is, we just can't afford to buy supplies, especially with so many recent devastating cuts to educational funding. Please help bring fun, color, and creativity to my students' learning. My hard-working fourth graders deserve it! Any donation would be GREATLY appreciated!
