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 teach third grade in a Title I school in Long Island City, New York. My students come from a very low income area and most live in public housing. Many live in shelters as well. Many of my students come from poverty. All the students receive free breakfast and lunch. My school is a community school, so we help meet many of the families needs. We have provided a dentist, mental health counseling, and even a food pantry.

Despite the challenges that my students face, they are positive, motivated, kind, and fun loving.

They love to learn and appreciate the little things. They love to read and they love to learn using technology.

My students come into class everyday with smiles on their faces and always willing to lend a hand. They are kind to each other and to anyone they meet. My hope is to give them everything they need to help them learn and keep those faces smiling!

My Project

With these materials my students can come out of the boring workbooks. They will be able to try and try again using the white boards and dry erase markers! The magnetic fraction strips with allow them to have a hands on experience when learning fractions. This will help with their visual learning and will give them a great opportunity to gain that conceptual understanding that is super important in Math. Due to health and safety protocols, the students cannot share material, so to keep them safe it is important that they each have their own white boards as well as their own math manipulatives.
