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

I work in a dual Spanish/English school in the South Bronx. Most of my students come from low socioeconomic backgrounds and are benefiting from our dual language program. My students get to have their first experience in school in my classroom. Our students get the opportunity to learn English and Spanish in a very tranquil environment. They have the opportunity to take art, music and phisical education in addition to exploring many local places in our community. Many of my students are English language learners who get extra benefits from this early childhood experience.

My Project

I work in a dual Spanish/English language school. I teach 2 pre-kindergarten classes of eighteen 4 year old students. We do a lot of hands-on activities and my students get to have a great early childhood experience. However, my students get really hot in my classroom without an air conditioner. They get really exhausted and have a hard time taking a nap in an extremely hot room. Parents and students complain about the room temperature. I open the windows and put two fans, but the temperature does not go down. My students are usually asking for water and talking about how uncomfortable the classroom temperature get when is hot. My students will be able to concentrate more in the lessons given and less on the extremely hot temperature. My students will also be able to take naps appropriate for their age instead of turning around on a hot cot. My students will be able to explore the classroom activities and not sit down because they are tired.
