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.
"The Secret in Education lies in respecting the student." Help my students recognize that they are respected. Our parents send their students to school with hope of wanting to see them succeed as bright young adults in their community. My students are all extremely talented and need someone to help them recognize that they are as bright as any other students in the world.
Each one of my students has a hidden talent.
When I experience my students' talents being showcased, it is moving as it provides them with the confidence to keep learning and striving for more. As a teacher it shows me how much students can achieve with motivation and support.
My students work in a blended learning environment. Every day, students in my classroom will be working with others to help expand their skills inside and outside of a classroom setting. Students have the opportunity to work on various workshops while some work collaboratively with tutors and myself. My students are eager to learn and therefore push me to be creative and constantly grow by thinking of a variety of different strategies and scaffolding techniques I can create to help each individual student prosper.
My Project
When we take tests in my classroom, usually 15 out out of 35 students will actually take the exam while the rest work on collaborative learning and workshops. Having a full set of 35 dividers will allow my students to be able to focus better while taking an exam. My students often complain about the distractions they have while taking a test and would like to have their own space to be able to concentrate better. I am unable to provide this because our space in the classroom is limited.
My students would be thrilled to be able to use these dividers if given the chance to have access to them.
Currently they are using temporary dividers that I made with recycled folders which are flimsy and not durable. If given the chance to receive this grant, I know that my students will excel and fell better about the work they are doing which will reflect positively on their grades.
With the folders, Area Rug, and Ball chairs I receive, I will be able to teach more more in-depth lessons without being a distraction to students who are working on other scaffold work. For an example, I could do a personalized lesson on linear equations and linear systems to give direct instruction to a small group of students who need extra help. The rug can be utilized for students to sit on the floor while working on workshops and looking at feedback on activities they have completed. The others use privacy dividers to work on individualized tests. The biggest learning outcome for this lesson is that students should be able to work at their own pace and accomplish completing their work in different ways.
