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 Project

I am a Math and Science teacher in Bronx, New York. For the past 3 years, our city and school communities have been hit and hurt by unexpected changes that forever altered our lifestyles and routines. Despite our best intentions and efforts to support our students, we continue to face challenges resulting from deepened learning gaps, limited socialization, and a reduced education budget.

I am truly inspired by my students' curiosity, resilience, and diverse backgrounds.

Each resource in our cart serves a special purpose: the trash can promotes responsibility for our environment, classroom decorations create an inviting space, Echo Dots offer interactive learning experiences, the neon sign adds vibrancy, gloves ensure safe experiments and small prizes motivate and reward their efforts, collectively fostering an enriching and inclusive learning journey.

The requested items hold significant potential to transform my students' learning experiences. The trash can instills a sense of responsibility for cleanliness and environmental awareness. Classroom decorations create an inviting atmosphere, enhancing their engagement and sense of belonging. The Echo Dots introduce interactive learning, encouraging active participation and exploration. The neon sign adds a visual spark that energizes their learning environment. Gloves ensure safe, hands-on activities, promoting curiosity and experimentation. Small prizes serve as positive reinforcement, motivating their efforts and boosting their self-esteem.

The goals for this project are to create a welcoming, vibrant, and interactive classroom environment that nurtures their diverse strengths and fosters a love for learning. We aim to cultivate a sense of ownership and pride among students, making them active participants in their educational journey.

What makes my students truly special is their unique backgrounds, perspectives, and resilience. Their curiosity and determination to learn, despite challenges, inspire me daily. Their diversity enriches our classroom discussions and creates a dynamic learning community where everyone's voice is valued. With
