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 amazing fourth graders, who deserve the very best! They are fun, energetic and creative, and I love to showcase their spectacular talents. The school where I teach is considered "high poverty," so some students do not have the same opportunities as others. Everyone qualifies for free lunch in the Title I program.

Despite our economic challenges, our community is very supportive and makes our little school a great place to learn!

Although my students are not diverse in race and background, they are all creative by nature and very different in the way they learn. Our urban school is located in a community that supports the arts, STEM, and extracurricular activities. Many students come into school looking forward to simple things like taking a photo, singing a song, or getting a hello from a friend. For some of them, this interaction is the only positive part of their day.

My Project

My students are in need of a laptop computer and carrying case so we can take our science learning everywhere. Our playground and our local community provides many opportunities for the study of Environmental Science. Our local gardens, parks, and even our own school green spaces have a wealth of flora and fauna that we can study. We will connect the study of these local environments to our Sustainable Energy unit.

This laptop will mean that our research and science learning opportunities continue outside of our classroom.

Students will take turns with the laptop and add their research about sustainable energy to our shared Google Doc. This way we will learn, through shared research and collaboration, how our local inner city can be efficient in its use of resources. Sustainable energy is a difficult topic that will be made easier to learn because we have a laptop that takes our science learning everywhere. Thank you to GM for the funding support!
