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 middle schoolers are amazing. They're young enough that they're still enthusiastic about everything, and they're old enough to be aware that the choices they make every day will impact them in the future.

A big part of my job as a middle school teacher is building the skills of self-awareness and self-advocacy in each of my students.

I teach them to think about and understand what they need to be successful and how to get the supports they've identified.

Our school has a diverse grouping of students learning English as a new language, students with physical and learning disabilities, and students from every socio-economic background you can imagine. What do all of these kids have in common? Each and every one of them can learn. Each and every one of them can be successful. Each and every one of them is cared for in our school. Each and every one of them is special to me.

My Project

Teaching and learning math in person is a challenge but trying to do this remotely is a gargantuan task. There's so much to think about: how to effectively teach complex thinking to a variety of learning modalities, how to engage learners who are not accustomed to work this independently, how to work asynchronously because our students have shifted their sleep/work schedules dramatically, how to support students and families when they have questions in real time, and how to meaningfully assess and track what students have learned over time.

Educational technology like Moby Max allows me to assign standards-aligned practice to students and monitor their growth.

Moby Max gives students real-time feedback, allowing them to learn from their mistakes. Through Moby Max's dashboards, I can see students' answers and other valuable data (how long a question took them, whether they got a similar question right later in the practice set). I can assess student learning with instant grading and I can also set student-specific goals based on those results.

If I can't be in the classroom guiding my students, Moby Max can help guide them and give me the data I need to move everyone forward.
