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 6th grade ELA/Social Studies students at a middle school in South Los Angeles are curious kids who love boosting their literacy skills and learning about Ancient Civilizations. Many of my students are English language learners who are still working towards proficiency, and many of them have had to overcome substantial obstacles to meet grade-level standards. My students are passionate, funny, and caring and determined learners.
My students are working so hard to achieve their goals.
This year, we're working hard to boost our academic conversation skills. We're learning how to collaborate as learners and how to learn from our peers. We want to have a classroom where all students can access the curriculum and participate fully.
My Project
I'm hoping to use these supplies to help create a great classroom environment for my students. Being able to print materials in color would be hugely beneficial. This laminator will help me perfect our classroom environment and help us reuse materials again and again (which will help save paper!) We will laminate handouts and important materials so they last and students can use them throughout the year. For example, I would like to have laminated cards with sentence stems available for my English language learners so they can better participate in academic conversations.
My students deserve the best possible classroom.
We also want a globe for our classroom to help us conceptualize the global concepts we are learning this year in social studies. We're so excited to learn about ancient civilizations, and this will help us better connect to our learning.
