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 classroom is considered a second home to many of my students. I teach 5th grade in Brooklyn, NY. Our students come from many diverse cultures and are from low income families. The cultural diversity in or school is what makes the environment very unique. We, as adults, learn with our students every day. Our teachers are the examples of adults that our students look up to as role models. Because of that, I strive every day to be the best teacher I can be for these kids.

Our students are so special because they work so hard on things that others take for granted.

Our students choose to come to school every day!

My Project

It is proven that children can learn better when they are able to visualize textual information. Sometimes text alone does not provide enough motivation for kids to fully grasp the complexity of the concepts being taught.

By simply putting words in order for students, making the text colorful, or even providing basic illustrations can significantly increase the students ability to understand the content.

Many classrooms have very small writing space, which often requires teachers to write the text smaller in order to fit all of the necessary information on the boards. Having access to a variety of different wall space locations, students can have the advantage of a larger learning atmosphere.
