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 creative, thoughtful and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly.

We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! I would like to expand teaching strategies to include the use of technology using The Amazon Fire to allow access to educational web sites to improve mathematics skills in problem solving by strengthening academic language, clue words, skills and strategies. They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn

My Project

My students come from families of recent immigrants who are hard working trying to make ends meet and struggle with academic work In math due to limited knowledge of English and word problem solving in mathematics. Using technology will make a huge difference to give our learners access to online programs and videos to practice problem skills using limited English to improve their use of skills and strategies. The outcome will be proficiency in mathematics and the ability to solve multi step word problems while learning their academic language and word clues. Please help me to help the leaders of tomorrow!
