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

Everyday my 4th grade group of students are energized and ready to learn. They are excited for what new lessons and skills are in store for them that day in math, science, and social studies. I am constantly focusing on increasing my students' performance and engagement in these subject areas, especially during this new distance learning period. 4th grade 2020 has been an adventure for teachers and students. Despite many challenges and limited technology, my goal is to inspire, engage, and support my students.

Our new reality is virtual, thus technology is key to engage my diverse group of students so I can enhance their learning.

It is my hope that I may continue to support and reinforce mathematics skills, science concepts, and STEM challenges throughout this year.

My Project

Our new reality is virtual! There have been some challenges using technology during this new distance learning period. To effectively communicate with students and engage them in their learning journey, Zoom meetings have been scheduled and school laptop carts have been emptied to provide our students with access to Internet/computers. Teachers need reliable computers too to connect with students and enrich their online learning.

The HP laptop will allow me to effectively teach online and find resources that will enrich/support my student's learning.

In addition, this laptop will become apart of our future classroom computer station when school re-opens.
