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.

My Students

Our school is the hub of our urban community in the Bronx, NY; our staff welcomes students and families into our building and provides a safe, nurturing, and motivating environment. With dedicated teachers and rigorous curriculum, we help students become successful life-long learners ready to make their mark on the world. We strive to help students find and pursue their talents and passions. We value the arts, athletics, and team-building.

Our students face many challenges in their lives; our school thrives to make our school a welcoming, warm, motivating, and enriching place.

Over 95% percent of our students receive free or reduced price lunch, roughly one fourth of the student population has special needs, and many students come from homes where English is a second language.

My Project

My students need a place to collaborate and meet to discuss ideas and strategies!

I meet with small groups of students for intensive reading, writing, and math instruction.

Having a space with an inviting rug and kidney table will allow me to meet the needs of all my students at different levels.

I also conduct whole class Read Aloud throughout the school year where my students are able to gather in partnerships as a whole group to share their thinking. Having a classroom rug will allow my students and I to meet in an environment where we can share our perspectives and points of view and I am able to support their learning.

I meet with small groups throughout the day. Having a kidney table will allow me to meet with students at different levels and support their learning in a more impactful way.

Often times, imperative opportunities (differentiated curriculum options, differentiated levels of texts, etc.) are missed because I do not have access to a kidney table.

Having a kidney table and rug in my room will be extremely helpful to the children in my classroom.
