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
I teach Gifted students from 1st grade through 5th grade My school recently became a STEM school, so we are focusing on enhancing our 21st century skills of creativity, collaboration, communication and critical thinking! Students in our school come from all types of backgrounds, mainly Hispanic and African American.
My students have a love and passion for learning, they come to school every day charged up and ready to tackle new challenges.
I am amazed by the way they think outside the box to solve problems in innovative ways and by their energy!
The majority of the students at my school are English learners with Spanish being the primary language spoken at home. Over 85% of students also qualify for free lunch. We are a Title I school as well. None of these things hold us back, they just make us shine even brighter!
My Project
My scholars are capable of so much more than what they learn in their standard classrooms. Sometimes, the constraints of the classroom period and the other students mean that the more advanced scholars do not receive the academic push they need to further their education. This gift card will provide the resources will provide gifted and talented scholars with the opportunity to push the limits and see how much more they are capable of.
These resources will allow me to provide project based STEM learning opportunities for my gifted learners, scholars will be able to move at an accelerated pace and prepare themselves for successful careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
Another main focus of this project is showing my students that their are role models in STEM careers that include women and BIPOC, everyone will set their sights high!
Working independently and in teams, scholars will be able to spend time coding, programming, developing games, and gaining an experience that is both valuable and educational. In math they will be working on economics, graphing, measuring, and calculations!
