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.
My Students
This class consists of 25 students of diverse backgrounds. I am lucky to have an almost equal percentage of Arabic speakers, Spanish speakers, Chinese speakers, and English speakers. I enjoy the variety of cultures and experiences that the students bring to our community. They all receive free lunch.
They're really funny and smart!
Glad to be teaching 5th grade for the first time with this group.
My Project
A large monitor for students to see in the classroom will greatly increase student participation and growth. Much of the learning in my class uses digital media.
1 - Students will project their work via iPad for others to understand their thinking.
For example, when students are working problems out, they can beam their work in live time for collaboration.
2 - The TV monitor has speakers built in so that students can hear media!
3 - TVs are better than projectors! Projectors use loud fans that make it hard for students to hear over. They emit a lot heat. They also use way more electricity.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
