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 are always eager to learn. Many are students who speak anywhere from no English to a good understanding of English, and usually speak another language primarily. The children are so eager to learn. They pair up quickly to help those who need it.
The neighborhood is economically and culturally diverse but some families are at a financial and social disadvantage.
My students do not have many opportunities outside the classroom and love learning through hands-on projects during science. We are developing a computer science and STEM program in our school and inviting our parents as well in part with the CS4ALL initiative.
I know coding, stem and engineering will drive the future for our children and I would love to give them the advantage.
My Project
I heard many great things about OSMO kits and decided to bring some into the classroom. The students absolutely loved drawing and turning art into a game, practicing numbers through pizza making and selling, letters, music and so much more. Having no idea how the students would love these, I found we are extremely short on bases so they can all play.
OSMO bases are desperately needed, along with several more educational but fun kits like Pizza, Hot Wheels, Art and Detective!
The students are working in small groups, increasing social skills and vocabulary while using creativity and solving problems across the curriculum. I am hoping to pair the older students with the younger ones to work with them as well.
Please help us get more bases so we can all enjoy OSMO!
