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 a melting pot of happiness! My class consists of 18 (in the morning) and 16 (in the afternoon) of the most loving, most hard working little people one can ever meet. Their attitude and desire to learn can make any teacher's job worthwhile.

These students are a family, with each one willing to help the other.

Seeing their positivism makes me strive to become a better teacher each day. This year started with an unexpected turn: Hurricane Irma and the loss of school days. Time is gold at this point, when a big year of testing awaits.

My Project

Our class has always enforced privacy. Students currently have boards that they set up and create their own personal "office space." The problem is with each passing year, the boards have gotten flimsier and flimsier and are about to reach their limit.

When learning to develop individuality, independent work is an important factor.

By allowing students access to these privacy boards, I am giving them the space they need to work on their own. Students are free to use them as needed, but during tests, these boards are a must.

The children love to have their "private desk," and I feel it helps them work much more organized.
