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 students are a group of energetic, unique and amazing Prek students ages ranging from 3-5. Each child is different in their own way, but bring character to our classroom. Some students are amazing dancers who love to get their bodies moving and get that energy out. Other students are creative in other ways such as through drawing pictures or with paint. A few other students also tell stories while using blocks, dinosaurs or sensory bins we have in our classroom. They are all amazing individuals who help one another play and learn from one another.

My Project

These tools will help make a difference as the children will be able be engaged with these tactile items that they can touch, feel and play with. Our classroom strongly believes the children will learn as they play through exploration and their peers.

The students can actively use these tools to play together, learning from play and one another as they explore the floor tiles and sensory shapes.

Through the behavior books children will explore understanding their emotions and identifying them as a group with their peers. The hear myself phones will also allow some of our students with little to no speech the option to hear themselves and others as they play, which will allow them to explore more speech opportunities.

Each item listed will be helpful to our children, from the floor mats that will lead exploration of many topics, to the scissors that our student do not have. We, as a class, appreciate any donation, thank you!
