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 a diverse group of amazing fourth graders full of life, energy, and curiosity! They love digging into learning with their minds, hearts, and hands. They come from a variety of backgrounds and face many challenges, including poverty, abuse, mental and emotional health issues, and family discord.
Many of them thrive off the stability and structure that the classroom provides.
It is in the classroom that they learn about themselves and the world. They learn how to face challenges, fail without giving up, interact with others, build relationships, and impact their world.
Students feel most comfortable and learn better in a clean and safe environment.
My Project
My project includes face shields that could save a life and a small basketball hoop that is intended to motivate students to continue working despite the new normal of school. Children can be rewarded with the chance shoot a few hoops, safely in class, without entering the personal space of another.
Because many children will find it nearly impossible to remain 3-6 feet away from others, my project also includes a stability ball that could be a lifeline for students with ADHD who struggle to stay in one place.
The stability ball will help to mitigate that problem by giving students a physical outlet for their hyper activity.
