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

Our Title I school has 600 students in Pre-K through fifth grade. They are curious, enthusiastic, hard-working, and respectful. Our school is 84% free and reduced price lunch and we have free breakfast for 100% of the student body. Each one deserves a dignified education. Unfortunately, many students do not have their basic necessities met outside of school.

My students do not let their socioeconomic status affect their desire for learning.

The students are eager learners and have a love for school, which for many is the only consistent part of their lives. Every day I learn more about their struggles, their hardships, and their courage. I attempt to foster an environment that helps each student feel comfortable, safe and enjoy learning.

The diverse life experiences of my students bring a unique atmosphere to my classroom and our entire school. There is never a day in which I am not in awe of my students lives, both good and bad. My students are excited to be at school. Our school offers the most consistent home many of them will have with their most consistent family. I am a long time member of ATPE.

My Project

My Engineering Team has a consistent desire to learn new STEAM applications. Our goal is to engage in hands on learning through designing and engineering principles. My students are highly engaged in these applications, as they work on projects growing out of their own imagination. Vex Robotics offers STEM Activities that increase our knowledge in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematical programing! When children care deeply about the projects they are working on, they are not only more motivated but they also develop deeper understandings and connections to knowledge.

Through the camaraderie, my students have learned to practice gracious professionalism as they have learned to work as a team, and yet participate in a friendly competitions.

We are able to meet daily for 30 minutes to design, redesign and implement game plans with our robots. My team picks up each day where they left off the previous day, which means that each team member's hard work is left in the open in between meetings.

We have a great need for storage units that are able to lock. The storage lockers will provide a system that enables my students' robot equipment to stay secure during school holidays, in between team meetings, as well as organized.
