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
Welcome! Our classroom is a third grade gifted and talented classroom in the South Bronx. What makes our class special? We are highly motivated and ready for any challenge that comes our way.
We love STEM projects that push our brains towards minds-on thinking and our bodies towards hands-on learning.
STEM projects drive our learning and we look forward to these projects, but, we also strive for active engagement during regular studies during the day. We are an eclectic bunch of individuals striving for excellence.
My Project
As we are learning fully remote, it can become so difficult to engage students without new and exciting activities and projects. By having a fund for teachers pay teachers I can mine the brain trust of other teachers who are excelling in their subjects. This will in turn help my students by having engaging materials to help reteach or review a topic with a different approach. I create digital activities for my students daily, but, they need a different approach at times in order to help reach all of my remote students.
More than three‑quarters 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
