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

I am currently navigating my way around in a virtual classroom. I am learning how to implement new programs and finding new and creative ways to engage all of my students. My classroom this year has 22 enthusiastic learners, each is on a different learning level but all very eager to learn and it is my responsibility to reach all of these learners.

Our learners have been coming to school virtually since March 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

While many people may think that learning from home would have its advantages, many of our learners still face hardships they are attending class in the same room with other family members and it can create a very distracting atmosphere making it hard for them to retain and process the information they are getting throughout the day.

Our classroom is a safe place where all of my students are encouraged to be themselves and have fun while learning. Because of this, they look forward to coming to school every day.

Thank you for your generosity.

My Project

Right now almost all of my students are still 100% virtual. I am trying to find new and exciting ways to teach them and keep them engaged with our lessons while dealing with all of the distractions at home. Boom Cards is one of the ways that I am able to do this!

Boom cards provide that students with a game-based activity that helps to reinforce the lessons that we are learning in school.

My students get very excited when they have the option to go on Boom Cards, they want to show me how far they have progressed and how many decks they have completed.

The stamp will allow me to build up additional math learning kits so that the students have some hands-on learning tools to reinforce their lessons.
