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

Many students in my school speak English as a Second Language. Also, many students in the school live below the poverty line. Still, despite all of these challenges, they come to school every day with a smile on their face, ready to try their best. It's not always easy, but they know that if they work hard and stay focused, they will succeed. In addition to working hard, students also sometimes need that extra support. Because students have different learning styles, as teachers, we want to provide them with the specific resources they need to thrive. The students in my classroom are from many different cultures and each have their own story. They are some of the kindest and most caring students I have had the pleasure of teaching. They have fully embraced the growth mindset and consistently encourage each other to persevere in daily tasks.

My Project

Our grade level is so fortunate to be using Chromebooks for writing, reading, math, and science; however, we are in need of headphones. By each student having their own headphones, this would allow for students to stay focused on assignments and complete them more successfully. Each and every student deserves to have their own set of headphones.

During reading, students go on two great websites that help foster their learning and understanding of reading comprehension.

With these headphones, it would allow each student to be focused on their own computer and content in front of them. During math, students practice their skills and strategies on a website that is great for breaking down problems and explicitly explaining and showing students how and what strategy/skill to use. With headphones, students would stay more engaged in the lesson.
