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 from lower income families. Each student has a different level of development. Students are finally back in person, and are thrilled to be back!

My wonderful preschoolers are so funny, curious, and excited to participate in play!

My Project

A projector will give my students an opportunity to view subject matter in a visual form. Many of our topics can be expanded through video form, which can be challenging to share with a small media tool. With a projector I can share media easily and students can view material clearly without huddling together around one device.

Many students are visual learners and require many visual cues, this tool can help support those students tremendously.

This tool can also be used during music and movement. Students can be lead visually during this portion of the class, playing dance and yoga videos during this time.
