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

These items will help my student learn math concepts, such as, measuring wight by using a balancing scale, counting, and sorting. The tablet will help students develop more math, literacy, and gross motor skills. The tablet will be used to use the applications: ABC Mouse and Starfall for reading, writing, and math. Using the tablet will also help improve their fine motor skills. The Lysol wipes and Lysol Disinfectant Spray will help me keep our learning environment clean and safe in this post Covid era.

My goal is to make learning more fun and engaging.

I want the students to love and enjoy learning through the use of the varying tools.

My students are eager to learn. They are sweet, kind, and motivated. I want to nurture their eagerness to learn and keep them motivated. With your support, I can continue to nurture their curiosity for learning and build up their confidence.

Thank you in advance.
