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

It is an honor this academic year to have young scholars who are eager and determined to learn. The school is classified as a Title I school. Therefore, scholars and families lack basic essentials. Many of the scholars in my classroom have recently arrived from their native countries. The scholars' native countries consist of the following: Bangladesh, Lebanon, China, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Senegal.

The classes I facilitate instruction are categorized as English as a New Language and Special Education.

In addition, the scholars are deficient in foundation skills (e.g. addition, subtraction, etc.). Many of my scholars have not had the opportunity to attend elementary school in their native countries. The scholars’ academic deficits are in the following subjects: Language, Reading, Writing, and Math.

However, despite the scholars' academic deficits, they are enthusiastic and strive to learn. I am dedicated to supporting scholars and families by providing school supplies (e.g. notebooks, pencils, and book bags).

Finally, I support the scholars to develop self-confidence, independence and thrive to succeed academically and socially.

My Project

Scholars desperately, need the Authors Craft Figurative Language Comprehension Kit to analyze metaphors, similes, analogies, hyperbole, symbolism, personification, allusion, imagery and rhyme elements. The Authors Craft Figurative Language Comprehension kit can help scholars strengthened comprehension skills.

Scholars need Summarizing Finding Evidence Kit Gr 4-5 to learn to identify central ideas in a meaningful way.

The kit can also improve their memory for what is read and can be used in all content areas.

Scholars also need Reading Comprehension Bingo to develop the knowledge, skills, and experiences they must have if they are to become competent and enthusiastic readers.

Scholars desperately, need all all the materials and resources.
