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 12-13 year students earth, life, and physical science at a blended learning middle school. Boys and girls who are excited to learn twenty-first century science. Approximately 30 students have IEPs and/or 504s, not including the undocumented 15% who have anxiety and ADD/ADHD.

These students are coming to school ready to learn, but are often fidgety and distracted because of their spatial awareness.

This means these students are trying to control their body (sitting in hard, uncomfortable chairs) learning in a multitude of ways that includes computer work, labs, collaboration with peers, and developing problem solving and higher level thinking skills. I want the opportunity to help my students feel comfortable, build core muscles, which will develop higher brain functions, and develop deeper understanding in the classroom!
