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

The school I work in is in a low income area. The families are either living in public housing or in shelters. The school itself allows for the scholars to have ample opportunities with the arts and technology. My students are absolutely amazing. They are hard-working and sweet. There is a sense of family in my classroom. My class is a general education classroom. The scholars are on all different academic levels that range from pre-emergent to above grade level. School supplies are difficult to come by. Most supplies are supplied by myself. I try to make our classroom a fun place to learn.

This year we are still uncertain as to how we will be teaching due to the coronavirus.

It will either be live, at home or blended learning will occur. Fortunately, the New York City Department of Education has provided the families with some form of technology. Unfortunately, we are not permitted to use books or paper. However, young children still need to be provided with opportunities to hand write their assignments.

My Project

Headphones are a very important resource for kids in the lower grades to successfully complete certain tasks on their computers or iPads. Many of the lessons that are taught to first grade requires them to follow the verbal directions given to them. They can better concentrate from blocking the noise around them and focus more on the material being given.

They can then successfully complete their assignments when there are no distractions.

The headphones will not be used in school, they will travel back and forth in case that the school switches over to remote learning.
