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 third and fourth 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

These resources will help my students embrace their mental health as it will target to enhance social emotional learning.

Addressing my students social-emotional skills are paramount and essential especially during challenging times.

The practices taught in the resource book for best social-emotional learning will be used in the classroom daily as well as carried over as skills they can also apply at home.

The incentives will motivate them to do their best and show their best efforts in assigned tasks in school. In this way, they can take a break using a timer, get a prize once their behavior chart is completed and they will be rewarded once a week since they are an example of a star student.
