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 amazing fourth and fifth graders, who deserve the very best! They are fun, energetic and creative, and I love to showcase their spectacular talents. The school where I teach is considered "high poverty," so some students do not have the same opportunities as others. Everyone qualifies for free lunch in the Title I program.

Despite our economic and learning challenges, our community is very supportive and makes our little school a great place to learn!

Although my students are not diverse in race and background, they are all creative by nature and very different in the way they learn. Our urban school is located in a community that supports the arts, STEAM, extracurricular activities, and provides support for our ADHD and Autistic population. Many students come into school looking forward to simple things like taking a photo, singing a song, or getting a hello from a friend. For some of them, this interaction is the only positive part of their day.

My Project

In a STEAM school, it is an exciting challenge to integrate all subject areas throughout the school day. My goal is to include Physical Education as much as the other STEAM disciplines.

Fourth graders are incredibly energetic and creative so I see this as an opportunity to promote both physical education and the performing arts.

I would like a Qball in order to take the integration of physical movement to the next level. Our first sports play will follow the life of Jackie Robinson and be performed in an outdoor amphitheater space. I can not think of a better tool than a throwable microphone to help us keep the movement going and our voices loud and firm. This is the kind of out-of-the-box project that makes it exciting to be a teacher! Thank you for any support you can provide.
