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 a diverse group of individuals that come from all different parts of the five boroughs. My classroom is an ICT (Integrated Collaborative Teaching Classroom) with a mix of both students with disabilities and ENL learners.

My students are bright individuals with various academic levels of learning needs.

They value the importance of learning for growth and development. We are a Title I school, where there is a high percentage of students that come from low-income households in which they are still required to meet the academic standards set forth by our school community.

We create different opportunities for student learning and growth in the classroom that is tailored to their learning needs. It is important for my students to learn from one another and value the importance of their education as young children.

My Project

With the Cricut machine and accessories, we can create labels, personalized learning materials, and student visuals. As students return back to school in September, personalizing their classroom (from labels to bulletin boards) will keep them motivated and engaged in their own learning. Students will feel invited and excited to step foot in their classrooms every day!

The possibilities and experiences with the Cricut machine are endless and we can't wait to invite them back into the classroom and create various materials for learning.

Students will be able to express themselves and expand their creativity through new technology.
