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 am a Bilingual School Adjustment Counselor who is working with newcomers at WHCS. My students are new to the United States and are Learning English as their second language. For most of them, WHCS is their first school in the United States. They come from all over the world and we have a high population from Central America, Brazil, Asia, and Haiti. Most of those students have experienced a lot of trauma in their country of origin, in their journey to the US, and are looking for a better future in the US.
My Project
This project is a follow-up from my first project, as many of you know, materials in other languages are expensive and hard to find. The book “The Little Prince” in Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, and Haitian Creole is a representation of the students’ language. The game Loteria is going to be used during groups to help students with concentration while embracing their diversity and the diversity of others. The sensory materials are going to be used during crisis intervention by the students or when students request a break. The Model Magic is going to be used during gratitude activities to said “thank you” to another student in the group or classroom.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
