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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are special because they are a diverse group of learners. At least 90% of my students are Hispanic or African American. Despite the current situation (Virtual Learning)my students make every effort to log into class on time and participate.

My Project

What better way to grasp children's attention and spark an interest by simply just reading aloud to them. Research has proven that read-aloud books are the foundation for literacy development. Because technology is another key component of STEM, incorporating Brainpop videos, quizzes, and activities is a sure way to engage students virtually and in person.

Literature and technology integration in STEM will help students to better retain math and science concepts.

The STEM library books will be used during virtual learning and in the classroom(upon re-entry) to promote problem-solving, creativity, and most importantly to improve comprehension.
