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 perfect example of the "at-risk" students that create the LAUSD population. All of the families in my classroom are classified as socio-economically disadvantaged and qualify for free lunch. The majority of the class (78%) are classified as ELs and, according to Dibels BOY scores, all but one of my students are performing a way-below benchmark. Now that we’re learning from home, my students need extra tools to support their learning!

My students are funny, eager to learn, and motivated!

They do not let their disadvantages discourage them from learning about the world around them. They are aware of their faults, however, they understand that they can only move forward. They are not afraid to make mistakes because they know that it is a step towards learning.

My Project

My students come from low-income families who cannot afford to buy extra materials for school. Additionally, many of my students have siblings who are also doing online learning. As a result, it has been hard for the students to hear me and vice-versa. I would like to give them the headphones with a microphone so they can focus better on the daily lessons and be able to participate without having to repeat themselves over and over.

I want to make sure my students have the tools they need to be successful while they are learning at home and hopefully avoid causing permanent damage to their eyesight.

To avoid permanent damage, I want to give them the blue light glasses to lessen the eye damage they are getting as a result of staring at the screen. This is important for my first-grade students since they're still growing!
