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

What a group! I teach 3rd and 4th grade students in a self-contained 12:1:1 classroom. They are so special!

I often tell my students "Don't study to earn, study to learn because what you learn today is what you will become tomorrow..."

For the first time in my teaching career, I am teaching students who favor all academic subjects. They enjoy sharing their individuality and uniqueness when we engage in our lively social studies or reading conversations.

I admire them collectively on one particular character trait that is so essential to success in learning -- confidence!

My goal as their teacher is to direct their confidence to enhance their drive to learn and succeed in my classroom.

My Project

My students will use these resources to enhance their learning by accommodating different learning modalities and targeting curriculum across various academic areas.

I plan to use these materials to make hands- on learning real, tangible and more understandable.

These include the math cubes for my math learning groups. Other resources that will help my visual learners is the magnetic ten- frame set and canvas painting supplies. In this way, my special needs students, my students with disabilities and English language learners use different learning modalities to express what they know and what they have learned.
