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
"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence." A day in my class typically starts with high-five and a bright "GOOD MORNING!" While enjoying breakfast in the classroom, we share stories about our weekend or the night before. My 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students come to class with the eagerness to learn!
When they walk into the classroom, they have an opportunity to truly be themselves, whether it be expressing themselves through arts, sports, or sharing their love for mathematics.
I have 19 wonderful students in my Special Education classroom. The students in my classroom have disabilities ranging from Specific Learning Disabilities to Autism Spectrum Disorder to Emotional Behaviors. In addition, 10 of my 19 students are English Language Learners. My wonderful school is located in the heart of South Los Angeles, and many of the families are considered low-income. Within the neighborhood, the students are exposed to a variety of challenges on a daily basis (gang violence, poverty, drugs, etc.). However, none of these factors hinder their passion for learning.
My Project
Uh-Oh! It Is flu season! I want to teach my students the importance of cleaning and maintaining a clean/positive/fun learning environment! My students have jobs and responsibilities in the classroom such as: table wiper, floor sweeper, librarian, sink monitor, breakfast monitor, lunch monitor, line-leader, pencil monitor, paper passer, etc.
By incorporating classroom jobs, my students take ownership of our wonderful classroom.
With the materials, my students will learn the importance of cleanliness through wiping down tables/materials/chairs/supplies, and washing their hands often. I truly believe that a clean and well-organized classroom environment will provide a better learning environment for my students!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
