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 three and four-year-olds who love to learn. They are eager to explore through hands-on activities, and I'm eager to engage them in meaningful play experiences to foster lifelong learning experiences. They range in different levels of academic achievement including language development, and about 50% are English Language Learners.

Our school is an early childhood center whose motto is to spread a love of learning and respect for one another.

Learning can only take place when our students care about their school and friends. Caring for your friends and teachers starts with role models so that students take pride in their school and learning will naturally occur.

My Project

The arts and crafts materials in this project will aid in developing fine motor skills, improve hand-eye coordination and encourage self expression geared toward social emotional development. Due to the recent pandemic, the students are learning from home. These materials will be used by the children in the home to promote learning and aid in learning about self expression.

Arts and crafts provide young learners unique opportunities to learn a variety of social emotional skills such as expressing emotions that they normally wouldn't verbalize.

The materials in this project will also help my students explore their imagination.
