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

I teach vibrant kindergarteners that are growing their love for school and learning. My students come from diverse backgrounds primarily from African and Latino heritage. Many of which may be experiencing a school setting for the first time or may be English language learners. I cannot speak about my students without mentioning the amazing families, whom everyday beat the hardships of poverty to give their children an opportunity to grow and flourish. Teaching in the South Bronx comes with particular challenges but enthusiasm is never one!

Enthusiasm has been our driving force as we embarked into a new school year of remote and blended learning.

My young students are learning to collaborate and access their learning virtually. Though this comes with new chanllenges, children, families, and teachers are continiously finding ways to connect, learn, and be joyful!

My Project

During remote learning, children and their families are working to create a learning environment at home. Having a desk to move from room to room will help my students choose a place away from noise and distractios to join their live sessions. Headphones and stylus pens are accessories that will suport children engage efficently and practice writing skills through technology. However, with the increased amount of screen time, it is important children have opportunitie to strengthen their fine motor muscles and playdough is magic for small hands!

By donating to this project, you will help kindergarteners maximize their remote learning experience.

This school year has brought many challenges, however, I am certain learning can be posible with your support!
