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

In order for children to grow as learners, teachers need to find strategies that work best for their students. Through music, movement, hands-on learning, technology, I strive to reach those students who yearn for a different way to learn.

My students are very energetic, excited, and enthusiastic about learning!

My goal is to create the best learning environment for my students. Our school is a PreK-2 elementary school. Our school is located in a rural community. We are a Title I school and we serve ESL students and special education students as well.

In my Kindergarten class, I have students with different needs and learning styles. Our classroom is very diverse with students from all backgrounds. Many of my students are ESL and have special needs. Being bilingual myself I am able to offer my Spanish speaking students and their families a comfort in knowing that they are able to communicate with me and I am able to communicate with them in their Native language. Meeting all my students' needs is a priority in my classroom.

My Project

These Fire Tablets will be used for in our classroom in all subject areas. The tablets will enhance student learning and provide students the opportunity to have access to math, reading and science programs.

The tablets will also give students an opportunity to do research.

For example, in our class we have an Animal Research Project where students work collaboratively and research all aspects of a particular animal.

Students will also be able to access math and reading programs on their level and at their pace. These tablets will also give students the opportunity to use technology otherwise unavailable to them.

We need to invest in our children and give them every opportunity to succeed!
