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 are vibrant. My students are energetic. My students are diverse. They are passionate, enduring, and have the future at their fingertips. My students contribute to their school and community, but they are also at a disadvantage.
Most of my students come from broken and/or poverty-stricken homes.
The school hosts an over 90% population that is on free or reduced-price lunch making us a Title I school. Despite the economic state of many of our students, they show us on a daily, how motivated they are. They want to provide a better life for themselves, and they are working hard to try to get there; they want to develop life skills that will allow them to move forward in life.
My Project
So many of our students want the opportunity to celebrate their accomplishments throughout the year. Being celebrated is very important to our students. Often times, our students go on without being recognized, whether it is a home, school or their community. I want to put a spotlight on many of our students and give them a game night.
Help me praise the students at my school!
In order to have a game night, I am going to need some of their favorite card and board games. These games include Uno, Mancala, Jenga, and Connect 4. With these games I will be able to give students with good attendance, grades, community involvement, or good class behavior a chance to shine. Hopefully this will keep these students motivated. I want them to know that I see them and I am proud of them!
