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

This year I am privileged to learn and grow with a class of 20 students from all over the world. Their joy of learning and love of school has made this year so wonderful. I get to watch 20 passionate high energy first grade students stroll through my classroom door with huge smiles on their faces each morning with a true desire to learn.

Our school is very diverse and full of students who have a true desire to learn.

The majority of our students live in homes that English is not their main language spoken. The only chance to learn English is within our school walls. We incorporate lots of hands-on activities as well as lots of opportunities for students to speak in their first and second language. All of our students are extremely eager to strengthen their academic and English language skills. This year I also have a few special needs students who need some more resources to help them be successful in math. Noise during center time is troublesome so having noise reduction headphones will help them be successful while sharpening their math skills.

My Project

My classroom is in need of materials to help students practice and manipulate numbers to strengthen their mathematical sense. The addition, subtraction and number sense materials will allow my students to be further immersed in mathematics during whole group, small group and center time. This extra practice in manipulating numbers will help them strengthen their oral, written and mathematical skills while spreading the joy of mathematics. The materials will be used during whole group, small group and center time. My students are on varying academic levels, so having a variety of materials will allow me to differentiate based on their individual needs.

These necessary skills will allow lots of differentiated opportunities to practice these necessary skills throughout the school day during structured and unstructured times.

These items will also allow my students to gain more confidence when speaking orally to their friends and other teachers. Many of many of my students have difficulty with addition, subtraction and number sense.
