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 some of the most creative, kind-hearted, thoughtful and ready to learn group kids that I have ever had the pleasure of teaching! They absolutely love to participate during whole group and during our small groups. They are genuinely kind souls who and are so quick to compliment each other as well as help each other too. They enjoy learning together and just seeing each other online each and every day. They often race to complete their hands-on activities with such enthusiasm it makes me smile each and every day.

They love challenges especially those that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions!

They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically. My student are some of the best little people I have ever met they really do inspire me each and every single day!

My Project

My students are having a great start to their first post Covid in person school year and need a technology center in our classroom to help them acquire the necessary reading skills and objectives required of them. Since students are encouraged to work in small groups within our class having a laptop and AirPods for them to be able to work in pairs would help them work amongst some of the noise and loud learning chaos that tends to happened in kindergarten. This center could help students attain necessary language arts skills by working together and listening to specialized online learning activities to help them improve already attained skills as well as prepare them for first grade while learning in a wonderfully independent manner.
