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

In order for children to grow as learners, teachers need to find strategies that work best for their students. Through music, movement, hands-on learning, literature, and technology, I strive to reach those students who yearn for a different way to learn.

My students are very energetic, excited, and enthusiastic about learning!

My goal is to create the best learning environment for my students. Our school is a PreK-2 elementary school. Our school is located in a rural community. We are a Title I school and we serve ESL students and special education students as well.

In my kindergarten class, I have students with different needs and learning styles. Our classroom is very diverse with students from all backgrounds. Many of my students are ELL and have special needs. Being bilingual myself I am able to offer my Spanish speaking students, and their families, a comfort in knowing that they are able to communicate with me and I am able to communicate with them in their Native language. Meeting all my students' needs is a priority in my classroom.

My Project

Teachers Pay Teachers is a great resource for teachers and students. Teachers Pay Teachers not only helps students in the classroom, but it supports teacher creators. I am planning on using the TPT gift cards to enhance our social studies curriculum.

In our classroom, we celebrate our differences; we respect each other; and we honor our many traditions.

With your help, I want to give my students the opportunity to explore different cultures, topics, and issues from our world's past and present. It is my goal to ensure that all students and their families are represented in our classroom.
