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.
My Students
Our students come from a wide range of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Some know four languages. Some have learning disabilities that affect speech and language, fine and gross motor, and social-emotional abilities.
All have diverse learning experiences and the teachers on our grade level want to ensure that all of our students have equal access to learning basic concepts in literacy, science, writing, and other academic areas.
We want them to ask questions, ones that lead to more questions to make them explore and wonder, and grow as learners. To encourage them to to become active learners, we want to promote meeting Positive Behavior Intervention System expectations through tangible acknowledgements. Towards that end, I want to be able to mail my students books, educational games, and incentives for staying positive and productive during this difficult time.
Moreover, to meet the needs of our most at-risk students, resources that encourage a love of learning are a huge necessity.
My Project
Our students have been working remotely for over a year. Many lack the resources to buy kinesthetic manipulatives practice basic skills and master grade-level expectations. They also have not had many opportunities to engage with peers in games and problem-solving while mastering new math skills. These games can serve as weekly practice for students working at all levels. When students are having fun in academic centers, they feel more open to learning and this carries over to a feeling of accomplishment when they are solving math problems. They deserve a chance to move forward confidently in the year ahead.
More than half of students from low‑income households
