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

My amazing 2nd grade class is made up of a diverse array of backgrounds. This includes English Language Learners, students with learning disabilities, Dyslexia, ADHD, BI, autism, as well as students coming from single-parent homes or migrant children living with relatives other than their parents. Despite these challenges most of my students face, I am extremely proud of their efforts and eagerness to learn. In our classroom as well as our school, we strive to provide all students with a quality education in a nurturing environment that helps produce well-rounded individuals ready to contribute to society.

My students are creative, inquisitive, and ready for new challenges.

They love to be involved in school projects and academic competitions to include Science Fair, Brainsville, UIL, and Coding.

Our school is located a few miles from the international border with Mexico which makes our student population very unique.

My Project

My students love animal and plant life. They are also extremely creative. So I want to use what they love to build my students’ confidence in doing science while helping them learn about successful and inspiring women in their STEM fields.

All students need to know and be confident that anything they dream of they can do or create.

My students will learn about conservation efforts to help endangered animals around the world. We will use the button parts to create buttons of the animals and plants that we study about in class. The students will collect them on their school jackets or lanyards.

We will also sublimate cups with different themes and ideas that they are working on daily.
