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

We are a Preschool for All Learners (PAL) program at 96th Street STEAM Academy. Our school is an inner-city school in a major high-risk urban area where the majority qualify for free or reduced lunch. Our PAL program serve children with a range of disabilities with both moderate and severe levels of need which include Autism, developmental delay, speech and language impairment, intellectual disabilities and other multiple disabilities. My students learn best through play in their natural environment surrounded by their peers. They need learning experiences, opportunities and appropriate supports to meet their individualized educational program goals, learn new skills and concepts. My students have a vast potential and are eager to learn!

My Project

The hands-on materials will be used to offer opportunities for development in many areas, such as, language, fine motor, mathematics, social emotional and cognitive development. The materials will encourage my students to learn and review alphabetical awareness, numerical concepts, hand-eye coordination, attention span, sorting and classifying. My students show curiosity and initiative in learning; therefore, the hands-on materials will provide them motivation to continue to expand their learning in a fun and engaging way. I love teaching with all different types of learning materials to bring learning to life!
