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

It's that time of year - back to school preparations are underway. Gathering all the required supplies will greatly benefit my classroom. Many of my students come from low-income families and struggle to afford school materials. As an educator, my aim is to ease this burden by initiating this project. The listed items will enhance my students' learning throughout the academic year:

- Jumbo pencils will assist my PreK students in learning to hold a pencil correctly.

- Sheet protectors will be used to create homework folders for students to take home.

- Playdoh will aid students in forming and recognizing letters, while also providing a fun learning experience.

- Crayola washable paint will be utilized for creative art projects and to explore colors.

- Expo Dry erase markers will be used in small group activities for students to practice writing their names, letters, and numbers.

Every student is special and unique, and though I may not know them all yet, witnessing their growth from the first day of school to the last is truly remarkable.
