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 wonderful students. They are so eager to learn. They adhere to classroom rules and generally stay on task. However, as we know, students today are under enormous pressure. The expectation set for students today is very high. Every year students in my school are expected to reach the NYS goals for their grade regardless of the challenges that they face due to their circumstances. Many of my students have economic challenges and lack parental support. As a teacher, it is frustrating to know that many of our students are at a disadvantage, but must still meet their state standards and expectations. The reality is that not all students have writing material at home. I also have students with IEPs and English Language Learners. These students need to develop and catch up to their grade expectations and these materials can help develop their writing potential.
My Project
I just received five new laptops for my classroom and I need a charging station to keep the laptops protected and ready for use for my students. Some of my students have an Individual Educational Plan, are English as a New Language student, or are below their grade level, and each and everyone of them is on a different reading and math level. We have a program called I-Ready and it’s tailored to the student’s academic abilities. The program has tutorials that help with their misconceptions, they have individual work to complete, and are tested on that concept before moving on to the next concepts of misconception. Having a fully charged computer will allow them to access their learning program to help close their learning gap.
