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 Project

I am really focusing on student success this year. Any success. I am reaching out to our students who are on the cusp of achieving grade level work and who maybe just need a little extra encouragement and support. I am hoping that these rewards will help motivate these students. We try to provide snacks for kids who reach their goals but I am hoping getting a Nintendo switch I can provide a student with 10-15 minutes of playing the game. Students also like to design and create and legos will provide an outlet for that. And finally, after much discussion with students they have admitted they enjoy reading and asked for one of my favorite YA novels. So, during lunch we are going to have a book group for students as a reward and read a non-curriculum book (Concrete Rose).

My students are special because they have all experienced some trauma yet, we are so privileged to have them come to school everyday.

Their tenacity and dedication to being at school when their lives aren't easy is admirable.
