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

Rain or shine my students come to school with a smile ready to learn each day. I teach in the South Bronx, and as an educator, I do my best to provide my students with a culturally relevant education that promotes critical thinking, creative, and empathic members of our society. Many of my students are English Language Learners who are eager to learn and grow through hands-on activities to build their English skills.

Kindergarten is many of my students' first experience with school.

Entering a new school can be scary, especially if you do not know the language. I work to provide my students with meaningful experiences to ease their transition into a new school as well as build upon their skills to become readers, writers and mathematicians!

My Project

A classroom easel is such an important tool in every early childhood classroom. It allows for collaborative and engaging activities. This teaching easel will support me as I organize my reading block for my students. The easel will allow me to display big books for all my students to see and engage with during reading. In addition, the easel will also give students the opportunity to engage in mini lessons for reading and math. My students and I would be grateful to have this tool in our classroom to engage in learning.
