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 two classes with 21 students in each. My second graders are in the Dual Immersion program and work hard every day to learn another language (in this case Spanish) and advance their academics at the same time. They are incredible and enthusiastic about learning.
My students come to school happy and eager to grow.
About half are English learners, with the other half being Spanish learners. I have a few students who need resource services.
Half of my students spend half of their day in my class learning Spanish, then they go over to their English teacher for the second half of the day. The students who start in her classroom with English come over the second half of the day for Spanish. We share and love our second graders. They get double the love each day.
My Project
Last year when we were dismissed I did my best with what I had. It was so hard to do quality math lessons. However after looking for different ways other teachers taught I found out that a lot used these drawing pad in order to teach their math lessons. I have been learning how to record these lessons but still need the pen and drawing pad since it is very difficult to do it with the mouse. Please help me bring my students quality math online lessons should we need to do our lessons at home at any point this year. I added a timer that I need now that we are in the classroom to be used during our math class as well as stamps that will be used to encourage them along.
