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

Imagine having a language-based learning disability while learning to speak English. This is the situation that most of my students find themselves in. Many of my students have speech and language impairments, dyslexia and dysgraphia. I am an ENL co-teacher in two 3rd grade inclusion classrooms. Hence, my students are also learning English as a New Language. One may assume that these students, with two strikes against them, would have little inspiration for succeeding academically. However, this is not the case in my school. My students are bright and curious. They are grateful for the opportunities that a great education can give them. They LOVE school!

The families of my students come to New York City for opportunities and the hope of a better life.

As newly arrived and first-generation immigrants, my students are eager to succeed in this country. Many of my students come from nations that do not offer opportunities for special education students to reach their full potential. In our school, they find a haven where differences are celebrated and young minds are nurtured and loved. Our Title I school provides 2 free meals a day to all students.

My Project

These goodies will help my students to be more excited about reading at home and participating online. It is my hope that these reading journals and fun new pens will inspire my readers to take the next step in their journey as literate beings by keeping track and writing about what they are reading.

These fun tools will be delivered in individual drawstring backpacks to students who have been mostly remote since last March!

The dry erase answer board will allow students to hold up their answers while on zoom calls, so that everyone has a chance to respond. My remote second graders have been home for nearly a year now. this would bring them such a lift.
