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 Project
I provide gifted services for all the students in my tile 1 school; grades kindergarten through 5th grade. My school population is about 500 students that come from many different diverse backgrounds and nationalities. 70% of the student population is economically disadvantaged households where parents often work multiple jobs. Many of my students come from families who speak multiple languages at home. 60% of the student population speak English as their 2nd language.
These games will get my students thinking in new and unique ways and work their brain power!
Many of my students are not native speakers, so these hands-on games are essential in having the student show me their thinking without having to speak a word of English. It will allow them to take risks and soar - without a language barrier. I will be using these games for small group enrichment, specifically with those students would need an extra push to unlock their genius within. My school currently needs more inventory of gifted games and supplies. I seek to provide lots of games and materials to execute new and excited learning lessons.
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
