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

I teach first grade to a class of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.

It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.

I teach 28 bright and beautiful first-graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade-level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.

My Project

This year my students are spending more time in the classroom instead of moving around to other spaces in the school. Because of this, we have many days where we are inside for indoor recess. We also cannot play in centers together as we are socially distancing in the classroom. I would like to provide my students with toys and materials that they can play with while they are at their desks. Dolls, play doh and art kits can all be enjoyed at their table. At the end of the day, I can sanitize all the materials used to ensure that it is safe for the next day. This year has been challenging but I would like to ensure that my students are still experiencing joy in school. These toys and activities will help to do that! Thank you so much for helping to bring smiles to my scholars' faces!
