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 are a mix of personalities. Some are shy and others are gregarious. Some are serious and some are goofy. They are still testing out their personas, so to speak, but they are a tough bunch. Maybe they have to be since we are located in the South Bronx. We are a Title I school in a not yet gentrified area. It is unfortunate that our students have to walk past addicts and discarded drug paraphernalia on their way to school.

Our school provides them with a sanctuary that allows them to grow and learn.

We are a 6-12 school so we have the opportunity to watch these students grow from children to young adults. Since we are a relatively small school, we get to know the students, their siblings, and their families. There is a good sense of community at our school.

My Project

We are a melting pot in New York City so it is likely that my students will meet people of different cultures as they grow into adults. However, they can still live in fairly insular worlds at this point in their lives, surrounded mainly by close family and friends. The curiosity is there though. From their interest in K-Pop to anime, they are would like to explore other cultures. A fun way to do this is through tasting snacks from different countries. My students threw in a few suggestions and I selected these items through Amazon. I know they will get a kick out sampling their way around the world. This will be another way to keep students connected and engaged through remote learning.
