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

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so so so so so so so thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!

The fact that even on my worst of days my students can cheer me up instantly.

They get excited about the smallest things like getting a sticker for winning a game

My Project

After being home for 18 months these children need some entertainment with exploring in a sand/water table and observing a new class pet. Both tables and beta fish will be incorporated into everyday lessons. We have thematic units that will go great with a sand/water center. We are so excited to start this year right. We already starting writing our names. They are so eager to start their job for example cleaning up after themselves, reminding their friends to push in their chair so have an aquarium would be an awesome treat to assign a scholar to feed Mr. Beta.
