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 school is a Title 1 school with around 600 students. We are 91% Hispanic and 98% economically disadvantaged.
Many of our students have to deal with some very grown up things outside of school, but they come to our classes ready and eager to learn.
Although some of my students struggle with math, they are the hardest workers you will ever meet. I am honored to be their teacher and am ready to make their classroom feel like a second home this year!
My Project
Our 7th grade math team has worked so hard over the past few years at finding and providing flexible seating for our students. Unfortunately, Covid-19 is changing the way we have to operate in our classrooms.
The good news is - teachers are adaptable!
The TV tray will provide a place for students to have a flexible seating option that is easy to clean while also social distancing. Dry erase markers will provide students something to write with that doesn't require paper.
We are planning on implementing a "flipped classroom" where the majority of our lessons are recorded and class time will be used as practice. This means that our students will need headphones to listen to our videos.
Nearly all 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
