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 Project

Every student deserves the tools they need to unlock their full potential. Through this project, I aim to provide resources that will inspire my students to work hard, stay motivated, and achieve success in their learning journey.

The specific items I’m requesting, such as organizational tools, interactive learning materials, and hands-on resources, will create an engaging and supportive learning environment.

These tools will enhance their understanding of core subjects, improve focus, and encourage collaboration. For instance, access to manipulatives in math or graphic organizers in reading will help bridge the gap for students who need additional support to stay on track and retain key concepts.

The primary goal of this project is to equip my students with resources that foster academic success and confidence. I want them to develop perseverance and critical thinking skills while gaining a love for learning. By integrating these materials, I aim to close learning gaps, enhance participation, and celebrate their progress.

My students are resilient, curious, and eager to grow. They come from diverse backgrounds and often face challenges outside the classroom, yet they arrive each day ready to work hard and succeed. Their determination to learn despite obstacles is what drives me to provide the best possible educational experience. With the right tools, they will not only meet their goals but exceed them.

This project will empower my students to rise to the challenges before them, proving that hard work truly leads to success!

Mrs. Qeraj IS 77 Joseph F Quinn School Grades 6-8
