Celebrating 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.
Our school is full of creative students who are eager to learn. Their passion and excitement that came into our school this year, which has continued since online learning began in March, motivates me to be the best possible teacher, for them. Many of my students look forward to our time together at school as it is a place where they can really focus on themselves. They come to school and now participate online, to feel appreciated, develop friendships, and to challenge themselves to grow and be better students and well-rounded individuals.
My students love being part of my classroom because it's a place where they can feel important, comfortable, and have fun!
I strive so hard to make my students feel welcome in my classroom and to make each student aware of the value that they personally add to our classroom. As a result, they very much understand that they are an asset to our community, and this belief motivates them to show up every day, on time and makes them excited about receiving a quality education. I work tirelessly to let my students know that I believe in them, in hopes that they will also believe themselves.
My Project
It is not easy to learn remotely. Students are confined to assignments that can be done on various platforms, but many of them require a computer. With the help of coloring supplies and construction paper, students can have a creative outlet to share their thoughts and ideas, aside from submitting word documents and powerpoint presentations.
It is important for students to be hands on and given the opportunity to express their ideas through a multitude of different platforms.
Not all students learn the same, and it is important that they are given different outlets for showcasing their knowledge. Additionally, during such a difficult time when students are tied down on their computers, a release from the screen is much needed and welcomed.
