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 Project
I have an extremely diverse English as a Second Language classroom. I will have 26 students walk through our classroom door in a few short weeks. For most, this is their very first time in school.
The materials I have chosen for this project are chosen after careful consideration.
Some of my students will have never left home. Some of my students will speak very little or no English. I would like to make this transition as seamless as possible. Therefore, I have chosen items that will reflect our diversity and accentuate how beautiful we all are!
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
