Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
Some of the qualities that I love from my students are the interest and motivation to learn every day. We are a multicultural school and, as a result, students have the privilege of working in teams and integrating their cultures and ideas with respect to achieve class goals.
We are a low-income community and 100% of our students are economically disadvantaged.
The science class is part of the Dual language immersion program, the target language is Spanish. Students from different cultures have the opportunity to learn Spanish through the content of science.
My Project
When it comes to our students learning we want them to explore their surroundings and acknowledge the world around them. My classroom will give students a wide imagination. I want them to expand their learning and to look back and acknowledge how learning about their surroundings can help in their future. As they grow and progress they will be able to work together and to build a strong mindset and inform others about what they learn in science class, for example, projects, and lessons. For example, they can use the Survive the Quake Engineering Kit to build an anti seismic building and to learn about high risk places and how these structures are made for these type of areas. Another example of a lesson is using the Take-Apart Human Body which would help the student comprehend how the organs work together to make the human body function. My students can work independently very well as well as in a group. When my students share their ideas I want them to be productive, team working, and be in a positive learning environment.
A developed environment will help my students in expanding their experience.
I also want to give my students the opportunity to choose paths they are curious about. For example I want them to be able to explore and learn more about new things including science. My students show growth in learning but with your help they will be able to explore new things and show their growth in different ways.
