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

Talk about a diverse community! My students represent various ethnic backgrounds coming from different countries, and different learning styles and needs. My students are special because despite what society perceives them as needs and to be challenged (in language, academic, and social areas); they are the sponge that absorbs learning just like the students I worked with before. They are kids who are excited about life and the world of learning. The only difference is they need something more and different. That's where you come in.

Students I work with are identified as English Language Learners from various ethnic backgrounds; with special needs in grades K-5 in an elementary school in the high-needs area of the Bronx.

My Project

Every day, I welcome my ELL (English Language Learner) students who appreciate everything that they are exposed to. Some of my students are economically disadvantaged with little or no ability to speak or read the English language with whose background knowledge may be very limited. However, these factors are not an impediment for them to learn and succeed. They come every day eager to learn and give their 100 percent even during this pandemic.

My ELLs may have limited English at this time, however, their potential is immense and with Cricut machine, they will be able to show their creative side while learning English through planning/designing and producing projects.

The pandemic has stolen almost two years of learning as these students couldn't participate well in a remote learning setting due to their home setting and/or lack of knowledge in technology. Having a Cricut will engage the students in learning as I would like to incorporate planning/designing and creating personalized items in my project based instruction. Students and I can collaborate on creating items with school logo and mascot to promote school spirit, which will be a fun learning time for us and WE NEED IT especially during this pandemic!
