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

My students are our future teachers, doctors and lawyers. They are creative learners, thoughtful and full of questions! Most of the children come in at the age of 3 and are language learners. They absolutely love hands-on activities, parallel play and are energetic. Our students truly love to be engaged in a play based centers. They love to be challenged and are eager to learn. They come to school each day ready to try new things, engage with new friends, and take brave steps to be emotional and socially acceptable in our class. Truly, they are my inspiration and the reason why I teach!

My Project

By donating to help our students with these materials will make a huge difference in their hands-on activities that would last them a lifetime. These will items will also help them to achieve a love of learning even the most mundane task. My students will be engaged and ready to enter kindergarten with confidence. Having a variety of choices and being in environment enriched with activities in our play based center will help children recognize the importance of self-worth, inclusion, and the meaning of being part of something bigger than they might imagine.
