Celebrating 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.
"We may have all come on different ships, but we're in the same boat now." Martin Luther King, Jr. The differences that my students bring in, carry many strengths that need to be pointed out. My students are English Language Learners, from different countries, who also face socioeconomic disadvantages as well as different levels of learning abilities. Even with all the challenges and differences, these 9 year olds have stayed positive during distance learning, supportive of each other and join our Zoom meetings eager to learn!!
My Project
Every child wants to feel special and feel part of their community. They need to develop a sense of belonging as well as empathy for others to become great future well-rounded citizens.
Let's celebrate their diversity by creating a memory book that highlights each child!
My 31 4th graders have different academic levels, physical abilities, and beliefs but they are all learning to appreciate and respect each other. I will be able to print out their special writings, and pictures showing the various abilities and qualities they each possess. They will be able to see themselves included in this book and know that they are all valuable citizens of our community!
