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

I teach in a neighborhood school that is mostly Hispanic. It is a supportive and tight knit community. These children are eager to come to school each day to learn and grow as students. The majority of the students are English language learners. Most students are still learning English. They need to have hands-on materials, engaging lessons, and lots of choices to help keep them motivated to learn throughout the day. These are very busy first graders who like to wiggle while they learn.

My goal each day, is to provide these students with a safe, engaging, and comfortable learning environment.

I try to provide these ELL students with a variety of activities, math games, and use of technology in order to meet the needs of all students.

My Project

The iPad will be used during math and science center time. Students will have the opportunity to play math games to help improve their fluency with math facts. They will also use interactive apps that will help them solve problems and explain their reasoning. The iPad will provide the opportunity to make science-literature connections through research. It will help familiarize students with new technology and assist them in becoming more comfortable using web based programs.

Many of my students do not have access to technology at home.

School is often the only chance that they get to become proficient in using these items.
