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 consist of inner-city children who come from low-income families, and some are even homeless. As a teacher in an urban district, I work with four and five-year-old students ranging in levels of development. I have several students with special needs (IEPs) who are currently mainstreamed into my general education classroom. We have a classroom aide to help with classroom tasks.

My student population consists of inner-city children mainly coming from low-income​ families.

We are a dual-language school where students learn English and Spanish. We are proud to be a national school of character!

My Project

My students love to role play real life situations such as playing with baby dolls or cooking a meal for a friend. I would love to give my students a proper 'kitchen area' complete with a variety of foods (including multicultural food items that are familiar to them), pots, pans, cups, plates and storge baskets to role play and enjoy! The kitchen area is an area that can encourage so much curiosity and imagination! We can extend their play by having them write menus, recipes and so much more! We are so grateful for your contributions to our project!
