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 all English Language Learners in Bronx, NY. They are enthusiastic learners and love reading! Many of my students are new to the country, from Bangladesh, Mexico, Albania, or the Dominican Republic, and others have lived in New York their whole lives.

They love reading about sports, animals, music and arts, as well as stories about kids their own age.

They love doing research projects, drawing, writing, and participating in anything hands-on!

Please support my classroom and students.

My Project

It’s no big secret. ESL students won’t get very far if they have weak listening skills.

In English as a Second Language teaching and learning, “listening” is a skill that involves more than just hearing.

We want our students to be able to listen to English with confidence and understanding.

Becoming efficient listeners is especially critical for ESL students because ESL students spend most of their class time listening as opposed to reading or writing. These headphones, jacks, and external CD-rom will help complete our listening station in class. Students will be able to access higher level texts than they can read.
