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

Our students are brilliantly resilient scholars who come from immigrant, blue-collar working households close to downtown LA. Many of them attend school year-round to catch up on reading and writing skills. These students tirelessly work toward fluency in English while continuing to persevere through the struggles of their community.

The culture we are promoting at our school is college readiness through the use of strategies such as physical organization, note-taking, and paraphrasing.

Students show up every day ready to tackle the day's objectives and build community with one another.

My Project

Now that we are back in in-person learning, we need equipment to be able to hear one another from a distance. My classroom is in need of speakers to hear one another outside and in the classroom to share collaboratively. What a year it has been! They finally have their friends and school year back, but they have to stay 6 feet away and are unable to collaborate without a screen in front of them.

The Bluetooth speaker and microphone will ensure, indoors or out, that my students do not miss out on the wonderful experience of collaboration and the traditional classroom environment.

These items will exponentially help my English language learners prepare for their state English test.
