Celebrating 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.
Our school has approximately 600 students and 25 classrooms ranging from kindergarten to fifth grade. Ninety-seven percent of students qualify for free breakfast and lunch assistance. The average salary in their homes is substantially below the national average. My slogan is "Fun in One.” I teach through my slogan.
The nurturing environment they receive in my classroom for 180 days is just as important as the one they receive at home.
We strive to SOAR every day at our school. Help us be better scholars every day.
My Project
Welcome to OSMO headquarters in Fun in One Room 6. We have been fortunate enough to use the OSMO platform since May 2020. OSMO Coding and Pizza Store will allow our scholars to learn a vital tool of coding, taking orders, making, and learning about currency in a digital world. Did I say in an enjoyable way? Yes, the beauty of OSMO technologies is that each scholar has the opportunity to learn at their specific speed. No pressure on who got a higher score. When my students work on the OSMO platform they sit at their desk and focus so hard on listening and completing the task at hand. I have never seen in 31 years of teaching the marvel this mechanism has brought to children. It is uninterrupted instruction. There are no ads as some teaching websites have. The animation is basic. The quality of the presentation is superb. The students are able to choose their materials (numbers, letters, characters, tangrams, and shapes from our OSMO headquarters in the back of our room. Log into their iPad and work during small group rotation for 30 minutes a day. And let me tell you... they can’t wait.
