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

I'm a first year teacher and so excited to get started. I will be teaching 4th grade in Charleston, SC. This is a Title I school in an urban community. Because we are a Title I school, my students come from a low income population and they thrive when they have proper materials. My students may not always have materials at home to help them learn and complete assignments in a unique way.

I love seeing my students laugh, smiling and having fun as they experience unique and creative ways of learning Language Arts.

My Project

As a teacher my goal is to make lessons fun and engaging as much as possible. I plan to use the bean bags and the holla hoops to help students practice understanding verb tenses and other topics. This will allow students to be engaged and also be able to get up from their desks and move around.

Having materials like whiteboards allow students to be constantly engaged with my lessons.

The whiteboards will be used almost everyday in my class to allow students to practice what they have been learning.
