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 absolutely adore my kindergarten students for their boundless curiosity and enthusiasm for learning. They bring such joy to the classroom with their eagerness to explore new concepts. The resources I'm requesting, including hands-on math manipulatives, phonics games, and materials to build on our Calming Corner resources, will make a significant impact by providing them with interactive and concrete tools to grasp foundational reading and math skills as well as build their Social Emotional self-regulation.

My goal for this project is to create a vibrant and supportive learning environment where each child can build confidence in their abilities.

What makes my students special is their unique potential and the way they embrace challenges with determination. These resources will empower them to succeed in their educational journey, laying a strong foundation for their future learning.
