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 students are 4th graders in a low socioeconomic status area. Our school has a population of students where 94.1% are socioeconomically disadvantaged and more than three-fourths of my students receive free or reduced lunch. In spite of their circumstances, they still come to school ready, enthusiastic, and yearning for new knowledge.

While many of my students lack resources at home, they strive to excel in the classroom.

It is not uncommon for my students to want to stay in during recess or after school to enhance their own learning. Our community rallies for and values education and is supportive of our school and our students.

My Project

The Osmo Genius Kit, Osmo Coding Awbie, and Masterpiece Game would be paired with my iPad to develop a dedicated Osmo station during workstations time. This workstation would allow students to use games and puzzles in the kit to transform the iPad into a hands-on learning tool.

The Numbers and Words puzzles turn math and spelling into educational fun, visual and critical thinking is encouraged using the Tangram game, problem-solving is practiced in Newton, and creative drawing skills are honed using Masterpiece.

The headphones will be used so students will be able to devote their full attention to the activity at hand.

These are just some of the activities my students will use that will keep their learning progressing forward.
