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.
Our student body is very diverse. The students come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences.
Many of our students are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status.
These things may prevent them from getting ahead early in life and may not provide them with positive life experiences.
From the minute they walk in the door of my classroom I focus on their potential and growth while they are with me. By doing this in a positive way, I am hopeful to inspire even our earliest learners to continue on a path of academic excellence.
My Project
Science helps children develop key life skills, including an ability to communicate, remain organized and focused, and even form their own opinions based on observation. ... Children are hands-on learners, and the world around them provides so many natural opportunities.
By donating to our project, you help to improve and increase student attention and focus and help to increase their academic achievement.
This year I have made it my goal not to answer questions and wonderings directly but rather to turn them back to the students and create activities that let my young learners work towards finding the answer to their questions. I can set up a butterfly museum in my classroom and use a chart with "I see, I think, I wonder". Students will walk around asking each other questions, talk about the butterflies, and use our vocabulary words. With the Butterfly Habitat the students will get to experience the complete life cycle of the Butterfly. The Ant Farm will show them how working together can accomplish big goals. These types of activities help them to communicate, stay focused and form their own opinions.
