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

Our fifth grade classroom is comprised of students who come from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. This year, sixty-four percent of students in my classroom are English Language Learners. My students are curious, driven, and compassionate learners who are positive role models in our classroom, school, and local community.

I strive to provide my students with a well-rounded academic, social, and emotional school experience; however, there is a struggle within our school to get many of the resources our students need for this type of engaging, educational practice.

This year, we were not given an annual classroom budget, so I venture outside the walls of our school to seek support to provide my students with supplies to deliver lessons that captivate their interest. It is important that my students understand that their education is valued and is a powerful investment in our community's future.

My Project

In the past, I've used Nearpod's digital platform to provide my students with captivating instruction. I layer reading passages, math problems, video, audio, games, and formative assessments in engaging lessons that my students can access during whole group, small group, and independent work time--in school or at home.

Nearpod allows my students and me to integrate collaborative, interpersonal learning experiences with technology!

Please know that Nearpod does not replace the high-quality, hands-on instruction that I provide to my students, but rather, it enhances the work that I do. DonorsChoose only allows a selection of two content areas for each project, but I want to be clear that I use Nearpod for lessons in reading, writing, mathematics, communication, science, social studies, and social-emotional learning. This project is all-encompassing and far-reaching with its potential for positive impacts on student learning!

Since the beginning of the school year, five of my students have had to flex in and out of our classroom with remote learning. Nearpod allows me to efficiently create lessons that can be used by my remote students to continue learning from afar in an enjoyable fashion.
