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 have been teaching remotely this year, and can't wait to get back into the classroom in the fall! Our students have been so resilient, patient, and hardworking this year. It's incredible what they have overcome!
Our first grade classroom just outside Denver has an array of language backgrounds, socioeconomic backgrounds, and students who will be returning in the fall from both 'in person' learning and 'remote' learning during the 2020-21 school year!
Each student brings a different perspective, varying background knowledge, and experiences to share. Our classroom community thrives on respect and we take time each day to learn from one another.
My Project
As a first grade teacher, I cherish our time in a community circle together. We come to the rug to start our day, to calm down after recess, during amazing book read alouds, and during whole group math instruction.
By providing a consistent, large space for the students to gather, each child will have their own designated place, be able to Turn and Talk with peers, and have enough space for their first grade arms and legs!
I can't wait for the chance to gather with my students in the fall.
