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

A typical day in my classroom will find each one of my students surrounded by books and discussions about the features of various story elements. I am fortunate in that each one of my students has a thirst for knowledge and is actively engaged and excited about their learning environment. Some of my students have not yet discovered books that capture their imaginations. This could be the year that magic happens and they fall in love with books. They love subjects like animals, cultures, and science.

We are located in a neighborhood that has been identified as at risk for low-income.

Our school's mission is to empower each student with global awareness, knowledge, skills, and values necessary to make a better world. The school community plays an important role by providing a program of educational excellence which encourages all students to develop to their fullest potential. As a STEM school, we serve students of all abilities ranging from special education to gifted and talented.

My Project

These two iPad minis, with protective cases and protection plans, will allow for more access to digital resources like Istation that targets reading interventions, Myon which is a personalized digital library resource, and Dreambox which provides math interventions. All of these resources will assist with building skilled readers who are able to decode and comprehend texts. Math resources will help with basic math computation skills and help build number fluency. All of this, without even mentioning the benefits of exposing my students to technology skills that are beneficial for future careers. Many do not have access to technology at home. This will allow access to an additional resource while gaining access to the power of unlocking their academic interests through literacy and math.

These attitudes and profiles help develop internationally-minded students to become active, caring, lifelong learners who demonstrate respect for themselves and others.

They have the capacity to participate in the world around them. My learners are digital natives who interpret and develop computer skills with much ease. Their visual-spatial skills seem to be well-developed because of their experience with video games, media, and the abundance of technology they are growing up with. My students learn better through discovery than simply being told information. They are curious and always in search of answers. This digital library will give them the opportunity to have a place to go to conduct research to fulfill their curiosity.
