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

As a teacher in a low-income/high-poverty school district, my students are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

My students are creative, clever, and very spontaneous.

I like my classroom to be a hands-on, fun learning environment. When you walk into my classroom, you immediately see learning occurring. Children are engaged in small group projects, building interesting structures with blocks, and determining what sinks and what floats at the water table. I like to ask questions, pointing out children's successes, and guiding learning. I want my room to have a sense of purpose, organization, and excitement.

My Project

Teaching STEM in the early years enables my students to make those vital connections between everyday life and the STEM disciplines. It also lays down the foundations for future academic success because the skills learned are transferable to other subjects. I use daily routines to build on skills and concepts in math and science. By talking, reading, singing, playing, signing, or using other ways to communicate – whatever works best for my students, can help me to develop their STEM skills through play and exploration. These materials such as puzzle, sorting trays, and wood stackers are going to be especially critical for my girls in the classrooms so that they can be exposed to science, math, and engineering skills at a very young age.

When my young students especially my girls are introduced to stem it will broaden their horizons.
