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
I teach a super cute class of diverse kindergarten students in a low income, Title I school. With lots of excess energy, these little darlings are always looking for ways to learn in fun, new ways.
Like most five-year-olds, their excitement for learning is contagious!
They inspire me every day to be a better teacher and find ways to provide the tools they need to succeed in their first formal school experience. I love to find new ways to capture their attention and capitalize on the excitement for learning they already have.
My Project
Having incentives, such as stickers to earn for their sticker book or desk pets, for students to work towards is vital in the classroom. Using positive behavior systems to ensure good classroom management helps build extrinsic and intrinsic motivation. Having kindergarten students who are experiencing schooling for the first time, it is imperative that we make learning engaging, fun, and build good behavior systems as a foundation for their learning experience.
Also, keeping our classroom surfaces germ free is necessary and having cleaning essentials on hand are vital to keeping my students healthy.
It is also frustrating to have a dull pencil when you are trying to get a work sheet done; a pencil sharpener in the classroom will help my students to keep learning effectively and will eliminate the frustration of not having a usable pencil!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
