Captivating All Learners

Help me give my students manipulatives and centers to engage them in their learning experiences in school. Many of them have never been in a school setting and spent most of the last two years in their apartments.

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

My students are coming into school having never been in school due to the pandemic. I am trying to come up with fun ways to get them excited about learning their letters, numbers, shapes and so on. Our school is in the South Bronx and many of my students come to school looking for a warm, nurturing environment.

My students love the hands-on manipulatives that we have in the building and I am trying to incorporate more hands-on materials throughout all parts of the day.

Many of them lack any materials to enhance their learning at home and rely solely on the school to develop the children academically.

My Project

The phonics centers will be used to engage learners in learning their letter sounds, their first words, and their writing experiences in kinesthetic, visual, and oral experiences. Studies have shown that using multiple approaches when learning cements the students academic learning.

The math centers will engage all learners in multi-sensory approaches to enhance their number recognition and counting skills.

These experiences will help all of my students engage with and use manipulatives to cement their numerical understanding of Kindergarten skills. I am the first step in their learning and I want to make sure that I develop the whole learner.
