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 some of the most driven, intelligent, and kindest children you will ever meet. Many of them struggle with focusing, processing, and motor skills. They come to school with the drive to learn and put in twice the amount of work as their peers to understand the various subjects. Due to the pandemic our students are currently learning remotely and have limited access to the materials needed to meet their objectives or learning goals.

My Project

These materials will help them engage with one another by bringing them together through art. It will increase their social interactions which has been decreased due to covid. Many of our students are home bound due to the pandemic and look forward to coming to class to interact with one another. We have found that art is a great way for them to bond with one another.

The reading materials will help engagement during reading and writing lessons.

These books will allow them to access the materials as children who are in person learning. This will allow for them to look for text evidence using a physical book and not rely on a digit upload that sometimes glitches and stops working. Many of our students have issues with their technology and it limits what they can access. The physical book will allow them to build skills with both reading comprehension and writing.
