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

The students at our school are eager learners looking to find a safe and secure place to learn. Many of our students are from immigrant families from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Honduras, and other countries that are faced with many challenges. Our school provides a home for a diverse and cultural community.

Our school is a Title I school in which our students come from very low income families at many times below the poverty line.

Ninety percent of our students are on free or reduced price lunch. Our school is located in the heart of one of the lowest socioeconomic neighborhoods where many parents do not even speak English. Within my classroom I also have several students that are English Language Learners as well as special needs students with a variety of issues such as ADHD and learning disabilities. These conditions at times make it difficult for students to learn and can benefit from any aid or assistance that they can get to help them to succeed.

Our students are in need of feeling secure and safe in their learning environment. Our students need to know that there are people willing to help to make a difference in their lives.

My Project

Our students have to complete a variety of programs using computers and the internet. The majority of my students do not have access to either a computer or internet in order to complete their district required assignments or assessments. As a result, students are waking up early and coming to my class in order to be able to use the computers that I have available.

With three laptops, I can give more students the chance of coming to school early in the morning to complete their district required assignments and assessments.

The students will be able to have 3 more stations to use and not have to wait until someone is done in order to get their work done. This especially helps students with special needs because they can work in their own personal area where they can concentrate and not get distracted or overwhelmed by others.
