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 known for assisting students who speak different languages and most of our English Learner students' living conditions should not be a deterrent to limit students an education. Every student regardless of their status should be welcomed and know that school is a safe haven where they can come to learn and develop life saving skills and friendships. All students are encouraged to begin their day with a warm smile and a positive attitude before getting started with our day. By greeting each student with a warm smile lets a student know that we are going to have a rewarding learning day.

I am a 4th grade teacher at a Title I school in Las Vegas where 100% of our students receive free breakfast, lunch, snack and most need to take a weekend backpack.

Despite some challenges and hardships, every students should begin their day by feeling loved and confident to learn and try their best. Students want to be recognized as individuals and know that education is key to have an opportunity so that they can be the first to attend college and/or trade school and be prepared to a face any challenge they encounter.

My Project

I have a group of students who face daily challenges and by providing earphones, you can assist them in concentrating on iReady, Imagine Learning, and SBAC online programs to use with computer Chromebooks without distractions. We currently have earphones that are often broken, too big, too bulky, or too tight to wear. Students complain and get distracted from those problems and stop working. I had purchased ear buds before, but unfortunately they only work temporarily and are mostly broken or lost. By providing a class set, students will be assigned and become accountable to value its use.

I have students who are easily distracted and these earphones will allow them to concentrate on their classroom programs and projects with confidence.
