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.
My Project
Our students love to learn, they thrive when developing and applying new skills, and they are resilient. We are an urban, low-income district, and the majority of our students come from hardworking immigrant families, many of whom speak a language other than English at home.
Breakout EDU kits and games that give students the chance to develop 21st-century skills, while applying their knowledge authentically, and most importantly, to feel successful.
Students collaborate to solve problems requiring critical thinking and strong communication. The challenges are appropriate, content-based, and engaging.
This project will provide us with an additional breakout kit and continued access to the digital platform, allowing me to continue to design Breakout EDU experiences for our students at all grade levels and connect to all areas of the curriculum. Students will learn to collaborate and communicate, to persevere towards a challenging goal, take risks, and continually revise their thinking, all while experimenting with new technology and materials. I am excited to see and hear the ideas and approaches that students try as they work through the Breakout EDU challenges, and the gains they make in higher-order critical thinking, creative problem-solving skills, collaboration, and communication skills. So, most importantly, my students will develop these invaluable 21st-century skills, the 4 Cs--critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity.
Our amazing elementary complex library serves 2000+ students in four schools, and as I continue to cultivate it into a 21st-century library media center and learning hub where students can collaborate and learn, it is important to provide students with opportunities to engage in hands-on discovery, invention, and understanding, as they apply learning and skills, address real-life problems with creative thinking, and use technology in innovative ways to solve problems.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
