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

I enjoy working with Pre-K. I have the opportunity to see my young scholars learn through play, engage in social interactions, and discover the world around them. My scholars are encouraged through student-centered activities and gain more independence.

Working in the South Bronx, I am able to work with many students from diverse backgrounds.

Our unique differences help us learn from one another and makes us special.

Using these naturalistic print rich materials, my scholars are able to have a cozy, peaceful classroom that makes them want to come to school everyday. We need light covers, Montessori toys, and plants.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve my scholars socialization skills but create a classroom that is conducive to their learning.
