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.
The students at our elementary school are from a Title I school where all students receive free breakfast and lunch. Many students in our community live in multi-family homes. The fact that many students come from these challenging situations doesn't change their willingness to learn. Our students are full of energy, and they want to be the best they can be, despite challenging obstacles they face every day. Our students come to school with open minds and hearts ready to learn!
Many students are learning English, and they need visual supports in all their classes.
By donating to our project, you will not only help to increase our students learning experiences but also help to create and build a community with a respect for maintaining mental and physical fitness.
My Project
Social Emotional support allows students to take charge of their learning and make the choices that work best for them. During independent work times they choose a location in the classroom that works for them. Currently my students are choosing to work in a variety of locations in our room such as: at different tables, sitting under tables with clip boards, or sitting or laying on the floor with a clip board. Making sure students are comfortable is an essential component in motivating them and supporting their social motional being. I have noticed amazing differences in my students.
My students are noticeably more engaged in their work and less disruptive of their peers when they are given a choice that supports their mental health.
The products that I have selected will help my students by giving them additional support options to make more effective learning choices. I have seen how choice can positively affect my students work and demeanor and hope that the additional options will help us grow even more!
