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
My diverse classroom is composed primarily of English Language Learners in a high poverty area. My students come from different academic, linguistic, and socio-cultural backgrounds. They are eager learners who need time, understanding, and a friendly environment that gives them the security and opportunity to discover themselves and their world.
Most of my students start 2nd grade without reading or writing.
Our school does not have a library, so it is in the classroom that students have the opportunity to read and listen to stories, to learn about their world, and to discover how much they can do for the future.
My Project
In our school we do not have an indoor play area. Every day that is snowing, raining, or brutal cold, students must have recess in the classroom. I want to make our indoor recess experience an opportunity for students to develop STEM skills while playing with their classmates.
STEM Toys are Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math based toys geared towards learning, curiosity, and education.
STEM educational toys teach kids to focus in on the four subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. They are a great way to reinforce the importance of learning in a fun way.
These toys help kids develop a wide range of skills from critical thinking and problem-solving to the basics of engineering and the scientific method. Children learn in a hands-on, fun, and engaging way. Please help me to improve my students' indoor recess.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
