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

I work at an inner-city elementary school as a 4th grade teacher. While my classroom consists of general ed students, 10 out of 29 of them are ELL's. Majority of my students are living below the poverty line, and all students receive breakfast at school.

My students are ambitious and eager to learn.

The progress they are making is seen each day. While my students are willing to give their all, their lack of accessing technology devices at home impedes on their development as a 21st Century Learner. Literacy is not promoted in many of their homes as most of their parents are new to the language.

The motivation and enthusiasm each student brings into our classroom has transformed us into a learning community. Our endless support for one another is reflective in their development thus far.

My Project

This project will provide my students with headphones to support their focus in their digital learning. We don't have headsets available, so the noise level is distracting to those sitting near by. Headphones will also keep my students focused.

Headphones will make researching and listening to videos individualized and exciting.

Headphones will support my students when listening and working on educational websites at their independent learning levels.

Flexible seating not only provides comfort for my students, but they feel empowered when given the choice to choose where they work. My goal is to give my students more freedom and creativity while actively learning. With these items we will have seating options to suit all learners, and help us as teachers with seats that are appropriate for the flexible tables. Flexible seating also helps restless students to stay focused while energizing those who may feel lethargic.
