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

Our school is located a few miles away from a large metropolitan city. My students' families are working class and usually, both parents work. The families in our community are very involved and want the best for the children and trust the teachers at our school wholeheartedly.

My students are enthusiastic children who truly enjoy working in groups, using technology, and being creative.

Eighty percent of my students are English language learners and although they might struggle with academic language and correct grammar usage, they are still very inquisitive and persistent in finding answers.

My Project

In order to accelerate learning after the pandemic, my students need quality instruction in small groups now more than ever. My students crave and deserve more attention from me and we need the tools necessary to be successful in small group learning.

Working in small groups will create a more interactive learning environment that will directly benefit my students.

The whiteboards and whiteboard markers will help me encourage my students with interactive writing and will lower their affective filter. Using a table top easel will allow me to work in closer proximity to my students and will allot me the opportunity to provide instant feedback when necessary.
