Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

I am a teacher at a Title I, fine arts magnet school. My students are from different economics backgrounds. The majority of them are economically disadvantaged. Their home settings range from two-parent to single-parent homes. A majority of my students are of Spanish culture (or descent) or African-American.

My students are innovative, hard working, and most importantly, dreamers.

We focus on student-led education. My students display their eagerness to learn, and most importantly, the character traits that come with persistence and resilience.

My Project

My students will benefit from these STEM kitsch such as th er lines and legos by having opportunities to create products that reflect thier thought process in PBLs and other science and mathematic investigations. With the finger puppets and stage will help my first graders bring thier stories to life and expand thier creative writing.

My students are at a vital stage in thier lives when discovery and kinetic action is the main boost of the learning.

With the materials for STEM , thinking games, and basic needs like a sharpener and dry erase board and markers, my students will have opportunities in the classroom they would not have at home.
