Building Cooperation, Diversity, and Acceptance in the Classroom
Help me give my students the resources to build independency, teamwork skills, and acceptance of others. I hope to focus a lot on diversity and accepting all students as they are this year!
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
Working in a Title I district has many challenges to it, but the challenge I have found the hardest to overcome is building relationships. Often times the students may not have a stable home life which makes it hard for them to trust others, including teachers and students. My hope this year is to start from the beginning using multicultural books and kindness books to grow acceptance and nurture relationships. I also want to incorporate a soft start morning bin time into my room to help the students learn to work together and trust one another.
More than half of students from low‑income households
