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

Teaching kindergarten is important because it is the starting point of a child's education. It introduces school to a student and sets the tone on how they will feel about learning for the rest of their lives. I have a class of 18 happy, smart and eager Kindergarten students who love to learn.

In my class, cooperative learning takes place often.

My students enjoy working together. Cooperative learning has increased my students' time on task, enjoyment of school, motivation, and independence.

My Project

Creative classrooms can really transform the way students acquire education and how they apply it in their real life. In fact, creative expression plays a key role in a student’s emotional development. In my classroom of 18 Kindergarten students, I am always looking for ways to foster creativity in my students. I would like a Cricut machine to enhance creativity and enable me to provide interactive art projects with my students.

The Cricut machine could be used in several ways to enhance art and creativity in my classroom: I could create props for literature for the students to use to retell stories, create manipulatives for Math and Reading centers, create props for classroom bulletin boards, create materials for students to use during Art time, classroom celebrations and holidays.

The Cricut machine would positively affect my students creativity and I know that they will love using products made by it.
