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 Students
My students are some of the most outgoing, hardworking and loyal young adults I know. They come from various backgrounds and love showing off their culture. Regardless of the hardships they endure in their home lives, my students always come into the classroom with a positive outlook and an unmistakable desire to learn and better themselves. Many of my children are faced with responsibilities that no 10-13 year old should experience yet they still put a great amount of effort into their own education. 100 percent of the students within my school receive free or reduced lunch and many of my students struggle personally to come to class prepared with not only school materials, but clothing that follows our uniform policy. Creating a classroom environment that is inviting, safe and calm is crucial in ensuring their success and comfort within our classroom community.
My Project
The magazines I am requesting are not only helpful to engage students who enjoy math and science in my classroom, but also provide an invaluable tool in making math and science interesting for my students who may not be enthralled by these two subjects. The real world examples and current information that these magazines provide my students with prove to be much more valuable than our dated textbooks and black and white information provided by example problems. I believe the ability to vary the ways in which a teacher can deliver topics to students can be a huge asset in a classroom. With these magazines I will be better equipped to reach all my students, rather than only the students who are already interested in math and science. These magazines will not only enhance my students knowledge of math and science, but can also help to keep them up to date and interested in current events and breakthroughs in our ever changing world. Thank you so much for your interest in my project and I hope you can help my students learn!
