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 urban scholars that have so much potential without the resources to match. While the neighborhood they live in has been developing, many of the resources have not reached the sections where their families reside. They are inquisitive students that range in age and ability. My students enjoy learning and have different learning styles. They love science and are excited about using technology for scientific research. Some of my students can tell you about the latest video games or what apps they use on their parents’ smartphones, while others have a television set as their most advanced technology.

When there is a challenge, that is when my students really come to life.

It is a joy to see them deep in thought or trying to discover something new. Many of my students have special needs and require accommodations for learning. Although my students can get easily distracted, they do not let that keep them from trying out new technology in the classroom. They rely upon one another to learn how to use and solve problems with technology in class. My students learn that if they work hard, greatness will be the outcome.

My Project

My students need safety equipment to help them learn in person without becoming ill. This past year my students were learning from home and isolated from others. Distance learning was both challenging and stressful for my students. The fidgets and sensory tools I requested, will help my students to regulate their emotions and de-stress when they need to in school. The books and new tablet will help students learn the technology content needed to be a great digital citizen.

Learning in a pandemic is not easy, however with the right tools safe learning can be a reality.

My students will learn social emotional skills and STEM content safely with these new supplies.
