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 teach kindergarten at an inner city, Title I school. Although my students have only met each other through long-distance learning, they have been able to develop a sense of community, caring, and respect for each other.

They are eager to learn, and are focused and dedicated.

My students are very curious learners who have adjusted to school quickly, and are excited about learning, working, and growing together.

Most of my students are English learners, some come from single-parent families and most come from low income households.

My Project

Making learning fun is one of my top priorities. Fun activities create high student engagement and develop a love for learning. Having these materials will allow my students to work independently, with a partner, or with a small group as they manipulate, create, sort, count, and build.

These STEAM materials will enrich my students learning by providing them hands-on learning opportunities that will develop their creativity, problem solving, and critical thinking skills.

The beauty of having access to these materials is that they can be used across the curriculum and make learning fun!

By donating to my project you are helping me create a fun engaging learning environment and develop the great minds of the future.
