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

Preschool children thrive on expressing themselves creatively through drawing. The sketchbooks will enable me to design engaging activities for them to complete and track their progress throughout the academic year.

These sketchbooks will serve as our morning learning journals, featuring activities that promote letter recognition, matching exercises, math skills, and name identification.

By utilizing these sketchbooks, I will be able to assess the children's development and adjust my instructional strategies accordingly. As our school is situated in a low-income community, these sketchbooks will provide a valuable resource for our students, who consistently demonstrate a keen enthusiasm for learning. Possessing their own sketchbook will undoubtedly bring a sense of excitement and pride to their educational experience.
