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

My students come from a low income Title I school. Many of my students do not have the resources that they need at home such as books on their reading level. They also do not have books in another language to support and nurture their ability to learn a second language. In order to learn a new language it is necessary to immerse yourself in it. This is possible through books and learning materials.

We are a first grade dual language class.

My students are developing language proficiency in two languages by receiving instruction in English and Spanish. We provide both sets of students with ample exposure to the two languages, allowing them to progress academically in both languages and gain an appreciation of another culture.

Our school is a high needs Title I school in the Bronx. The majority of my students come from low income homes. However, that does not take away their enthusiasm for learning especially in a different language other than English. They feel very special knowing that they will be able to take advantage of opportunities that are available only in other languages.

My Project

In September we will be back in the classroom and safety for my students is a priority. Having these sneeze guard shields at each desk will allow my students to feel safe and comfortable about being back in the classroom. Especially after more than one year of being at home.

During this pandemic we all have learned the importance of keeping safe by wearing masks, washing our hands, maintaining our distance.

I know that we can continue to follow these guidelines in the classroom by using the sneeze guard shields it will allow us to be together once again yet still being safe.
