Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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.

My Students

I teach three class of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders Science and Social Studies. Our school is located in a low-income, high-crime area. I see that my students are faced with challenges both inside and outside the classroom. However, I do all that I can to provide an environment that is consistent, fun and engaging so they can get the most out of their days in my room.

My students are creative, clever, and very unique.

They like to move, and they love to receive lots of positive attention. Many of them are being raised in single-parent households and some in non-English-speaking families. They all receive a free breakfast and lunch based on their socioeconomic status.

My Project

In my Social Studies class, I want the students to see and learn about the different types of cultures, religions, holidays, and ways of life. I want my students to be aware of the world around them and to help them gain a better understanding as well. In Science class, we are ready to learn about astrology, land formations, matter, and heredity. The students are excited to dive in for some hands on learning experiences.

We want to expand our knowledge of these subjects with the use of technology.

We have lots of projects and assignments coming up that the use of ChromeBooks will help us gain a better understanding. In Social Studies, we will be learning about the different types of holidays the rest of the world celebrates. In Science, we will be starting our Science Fair where students can pick their topic to experiment their hypothesis and share their results.

Having these ChromeBooks will allow my students more time to to learn and to share.
