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

I have the privilege of teaching six amazing students in grades K-2. They are sweet, energetic and full of wonder. All of my students have communicative disorders and deficits in social as well as cognitive domains. As one of their first learning experiences, I strive to create an environment that is safe, fun and engaging.

It is inspiring to see these students reach milestones that one might take for granted.

With the right support, the sky is the limit for my students!

My Project

Studies have shown that children use their senses to explore their world around them and best practice is when students use a myriad of tools to spark and retain their interest. Students learn best when they use activities that are engaging and utilize hands on manipulatives.

Learning opportunities that promote children to use their senses is paramount to brain development.

Simply put this leads to supporting language development and problem solving skills. Please help fund shape discovery boxes, a touch and match guessing game as well as counting tubes for our class. In particular my students need help with their gross and fine motor skills as well as pre-academic skills. These skills are important not only to help with hand/ eye coordination but to prepare children to do more complex skills later on in life such as writing. The manipulatives will focus on other important skills such as learning about matching, colors, shapes and counting as well. Having and using these materials will help my students achieve a multitude of goals.
