Dual Language Learners Need Resources to Learn

My students need a white board instead of a chalk board to decrease allergies and asthma. Also, my students are in a dual language program so they need Spanish-English dictionaries. We also need a microscope and slides for science.

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

Our students do not have the necessary materials to succeed, coming from a low income/high poverty school district. Also, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, they come to school motivated to learn. It is my commitment that instead of them receiving poor or inadequate reading instruction, they get the best reading instruction to close the achievement gap. Then I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative ways to succeed in reading!

My Project

I want to give my low-income dual language students resources they need in our classroom to improve their learning in 2 languages, in subjects such as science, grammar and social studies. If we use a white board instead of chalk board that will decrease allergies and will trigger asthma episodes less often. We will also need to use a microscope to perform investigations in science class and bilingual dictionaries to complete writing reports and projects in 2 languages. A world map is needed for our students to learn locations in social studies class. I have a split class of 45 students and some of them have severe allergies, so we really need a white board that would alleviate some of their symptoms.
