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 have a class of 20 energetic, eager to learn four and five year old students in my kindergarten class. For my class project, "It's Not A Crime To Love Nursery Rhymes In Kindergarten," I am asking for a variety of different nursery rhymes to expose my young learners to. These resources will make a difference in the learning of my students because they will be exposed to classic nursery rhymes that have been loved and cherished for many years. These nursery rhymes contain rhyming words which is a skill young learners need to develop in kindergarten. It is crucial for young learners to be able to listen to words and identify if they sound the same at the end (rhyme) or not. With nursery rhymes, children can do this in an age appropriate, fun, silly, and developmental way. Adding nursery rhymes to our classroom library will help me instill a love for reading, a love for books and a love for learning in my students.
