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

The seeds of scientific intrigue must be planted early so that students encounter the laws of nature and can make some sense out of it. I need materials that will enormously enrich my teaching and give my students experiences that go considerably beyond the picture, pencil and paper activities.

Our parents value education and our administrators and teachers are all working hard to give our students a quality education.

However, certain gaps exist in schools across America. We lack many resources and hope you can help us. My main goal in Pre-K is to keep the children engaged and interested in learning. If I can keep the children engaged, I believe I will keep their interest which will lead to a strong foundation in early childhood science. I would like to give my young students the kind of experiences that will encourage them to become lifelong learners. A strong science program in the early grades can lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning in exploration and discovery.

I am requesting a color changing board that will allow my young students to view changing colors as their fingers trace letters and draw shapes. I am requesting 6 board books. These cute board books are filled with textures such as bumpy, rough, soft, smooth and even sticky. Our PreK students will love to touch and explore as they learn about animals! I am also requesting 10 farm animals that have squeezable soft bodies and are easy to hold and play with!

Lastly, I am requesting 8 adorable dinosaurs that have lots of details and friendly features the children are sure to love.

Children are so curious and eager to learn. Please consider funding us!
