My Project

The pencils and markers will make a difference in their learning by providing a variety of engaging and accessible learning to the influences that help develop Mexican vocabulary. The sanitizer will enable to students to have a clean germ free space to work in. Finally, the snacks will enable students to receive a snack after writing their essays on Mexico. The students are taught different learning styles, which allowing them to actively participate, visualize concepts, and solidify their understanding through hands-on activities, ultimately leading to a more comprehensive and personalized learning experience.

The goals for the project is for the students to understand the influence of the development of the Mexican civilization.

The students are encouraged to clearly articulate a well-thought-out claim on Mexico, providing substantial evidence. Students are also encouraged to to inform, engage, and potentially inspire the audience through well-structured essay while using historical resources.

My students are special because every individual is unique, bringing their own perspectives, strengths, experiences, and learning styles to the classroom. They all come from low income families and receive free lunch. Their smiling faces travel by bus, walking in all kinds of weather and driven to school in all kinds of weather. The effort and eagerness to learn making each one valuable and deserving of personalized attention and support to reach their full potential; no matter their academic abilities, they all have the capacity to learn and grow in their own way.
