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 eighth-grade cluster is made up of students from a wide variety of backgrounds. My students continue to work hard each year and thrive in a learning environment that nurtures creativity.

Healthy students learn more!

Over 43% of the students in my cluster are classified as ELL (English Language Learners), and another 30% are classified as special needs. Even with these hurdles, my kids work hard to find success in the classroom. Additionally, over 80% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch. This means that many do not have the basic supplies that we generally take for granted.

My Project

In my classroom, I cultivate the inquisitive nature of all students. Being 100% distance learning has focused me to find more creative ways to engage my students in the classroom.

My students come from various backgrounds, and math discovery becomes our common language to explore the world around us.

My students receive 100% free breakfast and lunch. My students come into school wanting to learn and work hard because of a strong community culture and climate. My school works hard to support the academic and emotional needs of all students by providing a safe, yet challenging environment.

With Nearpod the students can interact and show their understanding of the material and I am able to monitor all of my students at the same time. This allows me to immediately address mistakes in their work or see when someone is not engaged in the lesson. The best part is that Nearpod allows them to build a complex understanding of topics through student-led exploration, discourse, and discovery!
