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

Pre-103 is part of a Universal Pre-k program at the Ocean School in Far Rockaway , New York. Our school houses three pre-k classes at this time.

My students are the most vivacious, and affectionate students I have ever had.

They love coming to school ready to learn. Most of my students spent the past year in remote classes , this is their first year being in a school building. They are learning to explore and socialize in a classroom setting.

My Project

These materials will help me provide students with the age appropriate activities that they need to acquire pre writing skills, fine motor skills, pre reading skills , and help me create visual aids that promote social emotional development, as well as to create teaching materials that students can take home and work with their parents. The materials will help students learn the skills they need in order to be ready for kindergarten , as well as increase their language development and the communication skills they need for school and for the home.
