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 Love Reading"... "Writing is My Favorite Time"... "YAY! We are Going to the STEM Lab!". These are some of things I hear my students say on a daily basis.

My students come from diverse backgrounds, speak many languages, and have many voices and stories to share.

We are a Title I school, which means many of our students come from low-income households. Regardless, each student comes to school every day with a smile and a joyful greeting. They love school, they love learning, and they look forward to connecting to the world around them through the classroom.

My Project

I am requesting microphones and chapter books. We use the latest educational apps to create videos teaching about the concepts we are learning in math. My students create videos sharing their learning outcomes with their families and their peers. One of the struggles they face is good recording quality. The microphones will help improve their recording qualities for their viewers.

My students believe they are video producers and explorers!

In second grade, children begin to see themselves as avid readers and they are thirsty for new series and chapter books to read. The books I am requesting will be completely new for my students and I am hoping to introduce both my boys and girls to new series and characters for them to enjoy growing with.
