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 amazing students are creative, thoughtful, and full of energy! They are extremely inquisitive during learning. They question not only our topic but how and why things work the way they do. We are in a small West Texas oil and railroad town. My school is 85% economically disadvantaged. 75% of our kids eat all three meals at school from breakfast to an early “dinner” during our after school program. Some students are at the school longer than me!

My Project

Since COVID-19, there are so many aspects of my students days that have changed. Normally, we do interactive stations where they are able to work in groups and learn together. Since we try our best to social distance, that is not really an option. Most of our stations are now on iPads or given as individual activities. There are so many interactive apps that my students love to use to still have fun with learning. It is amazing the things we can do with technology. However, every one of those things make noise.

Imagine having a class full of kiddos.

Then, you have their iPads playing music or sound effects. There are also some students whose iPads are reading things aloud to help them better understand. Plus, there are a few kids who are finishing assignments on paper. The abundance of noise can be distracting for me. Imagine being a 7-year-old and trying to concentrate with all that going on.

Some of my students have headphones but that is only if their families bought a pair for them to use at school. If every student had a pair of headphones, they would be able to concentrate on their work better as well as not distract anyone around them.
