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 are four years old. For many, this is their first time in school. They are primarily English Language Learners. They are excited and love learning.

Young children learn best through hands-on activities and play.

My students learn letters, numbers, colors, and thematic topics by working together and having fun. Our school just opened and due to budgetary issues lacks many materials necessary in order to run rich classroom environments. Often we are limited due to a lack of resources.

My Project

Little kids love to do art. Art is a great way for children to learn and to express themselves. We are asking for materials to fill up our art center. Since art supples go quickly we often run out of things. We would like paint and crafting materials like markers and tissue paper squares.

Children can use art to learn in all subject areas.

In Pre-k we use art to teach about literature, math, STEAM and especially social emotional learning. Many students have trouble sharing their feelings and ideas verbally but through art they can communicate many things.
