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.
When I think about going to school, I think about tons of textbooks, hours of research in the library, and a lot of frustration from not actually finding what I need. My goal this year is to provide my students with anything and everything they will need to be successful. For the first time, my students will be tested online in Math. The unfortunate part is these students do not have the technology resources available to practice and get comfortable .
Our students come from low-income households that require them to take on a lot more than any 8-year-old should have to.
This year because of Hurricane Maria, I have also received many students from Puerto Rico. Because of the daily struggles my students face, I want them to feel like the only thing they have to worry about is being the best student they can be. I want them to feel like they are ready for anything and everything that is thrown at them. I don't want them to look back and feel like their elementary years were frustrating and unfair because the expectations were too high to reach.
My Project
These Math supplies will help my students to feel more comfortable with 3rd grade curriculum and expectations. These students require a lot more remediation and practice since they are learning English at the same time as everything else the county is requiring. I want my students to feel confident in their math skills. I want them to see that they will have many different opportunities to be successful whether it's through a game, book practice, or technology. Since math is a universal language, these supplies could help my students to discover and enhance some of the things they already know.
