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

Hello! I am a dual language teacher who teachers a multitude of

English Language Learners (ELL's), from all spectrums of the Latin Community.

Our students love to participate and interject when they are able to understand what is being presented to them. They are sweet, eager and driven. I believe that all can be reachable and achievable as long as the proper foundation is established in order for our children to flourish. We believe that in order for our children to be successful, they must be exposed to multiple learning styles, strategies and resources that will allow them the opportunity to adapt to any environment confidently.

My Project

Our school is a Title I school with many living at the poverty level. In order for our students to be truly successful and college ready, adaptations to this ever evolving technological world must be imbedded in our lessons The implementation if the iPad will help unravel yet another form of interactive student engagement.

Even though there are so many different cultures, our students find communication through technology, especially convenient, useful and beneficial to them when language barriers attempt to hinder their ability to move forward with activities, assignments and social interaction.

We are fortunate enough to have a 6th grade STEM cohort this school year to raise levels of creativity, and scientific and mathematical thinking. These are the job skills that are in high demand.

Most of the students in our class are Hispanic newcomers, with a few Middle Eastern and Eastern European students. With so many different cultures and languages in the classroom, we feel a sense of unity when the students get a chance to engage with technology. The iPad will help develop not only the skills needed in order to prepare our children for the modern world that we live in today, but engage in interactive activities with fluidity and understanding.
