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 spunky, full of eagerness to learn, love to share and want to improve . I am eager to help them improve their reading fluency , reading comprehension , writing and mathematical skills. Unfortunately, being in an inner city school, I face challenges in providing basic supplies to organize by level and make it all easily accessible to them in order to motivate them in their reading, writing and math . Having resources , counting aides and materials organized by their level and skills will assist them in reading and timing their words per minute, counting and making collections in math , and in their writing assignments.

My Project

Although my students are eager to learn, they are faced with academic gaps in their basic reading fluency, reading comprehension, essay writing, and mathematical skills.

My hope is to have all materials organized by their reading level and skills needs/ so that they can easily find/access and take ownership of their learning.

This in turn will help them improve in the core subjects and specific areas of deficit.

It is my hope that by having resources organized by their specific needs, strategically modeling of skills , and having materials easily accessible to them will all in turn help them to improve.
