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 sweet students come from diverse backgrounds and bring a large array of experiences to our room. One thing they all have in common is using their imaginations and creating a happy world within our walls.
Daily, my students overcome a variety of basic challenges - getting breakfast, making it to school, and having homework completed.
Our school is a Title I urban school with the most diverse population in our district, serving free or reduced-price lunch to over 80% of our students. School becomes a safe haven for these scholars where expectations are the same every day, and their basic needs are met. While they come to school to learn, they thrive when they are given the opportunity to utilize a variety of resources to make learning real and fun. This is what keeps them coming back and keeps them hooked into learning the rigorous academic standards.
My Project
Students will use glue sticks to enhance STEM project learning and my students also need clipboards to record observations in the outdoor learning spaces. These materials will allow students to work on the science curriculum in many different ways. In order to have these amazing materials, we need storage bins and containers as well! The storage bins will be helpful for students to take control of their learning and in doing so become independent learners.
The LEGO DUPLO baseplates, animal habitat, and community helper kit will help students work cooperatively with peers as well as gain an understanding of scientific concepts by using STEM-based materials.
The rug, flexible seating chairs, lap desks, and cushions will all be placed around the STEM center and will be beneficial for ALL of my students who have varying emotional and physical needs. We are looking forward to adding to our STEM centers and know these items will be a great help!
