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 Project

I am a kindergarten teacher who loves to give her students the hands-on experience that early learning requires. My students are devoted, curious, and have the “I don’t mind getting down and dirty” mentality. They love to learn, especially when it's with some tactile materials and visual resources. I can already picture their faces when they see brand new materials used during their center time and choice time. We are a Title One school limiting us with what type of resources we can afford to purchase. The items I have added to my cart are leveled readers and items that help students build on their phonemic and phonics knowledge. This is the foundation for learning how to read. With these resources, it will make it fun for my students to engage in phonemic lessons and have a hands-on approach during centers. Our class is in need of books that help students learn to read. During centers in my class, we use these materials to create a sense of independence and love for reading. Students can buddy up and choose a leveled reader to read to their friend. They feel more confident when it’s a book that is on their level and that they know how to read. The kindergarteners are the future, and I want to give them an experience they will never forget in my classroom.
