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

My students come from a poor urban school where resources are short and needs are great. We are a happy bunch of first graders who greatly want to learn and have a classroom which is organized to maximize education. We have a mixture of regular education and special needs students. You could definitely call my classroom diverse.

Our class and school come from low income Hispanic and Black families who are dedicated to their child's education.

If they surely had the money, the parents would donate these items themselves but they are busy providing for their families. We have to rely on the kindness of donors to fund our projects.

My Project

Now that I have the books to teach our new reading program, the district has now introduced an online, technological component. In order to successfully track and gather evidence of my students’ successes, I have to take at least 3-5 minutes per student immediately after instruction to go online with a certain computer program and fill out evidence and observations on reading instruction. Unfortunately, it is extremely hard to do with outdated and equipment that constantly breaks down, needs to be rebooted, skips around in the program, or have letters that stick (particularly the”l”). This computer will help me keep up to date data on my students without struggling to keep track of reading evidence and success. It would also easily allow me to merge these documents for my special education students in order to help them get the services that they need in the quickest, easiest way possible!
