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

My students learn in an inclusive environment which includes students with special needs and typically developing students. My students attend an inclusive Preschool Collaborative Class (ETK/PCC). My students come from diverse backgrounds and have different abilities. Some of the students' disabilities that we serve include developmental delay, Autism, language impairment, and multiple disabilities.

My students come from low-income households and receive free school meals.

These students have vast potential and are eager to learn. They learn through observing and interacting with their typically developing peers as well as by providing them with learning opportunities and experiences to gain the skills necessary for success in their upcoming instructional years. I believe in early intervention and providing them with the tools necessary to succeed. By providing students with diverse learning experiences and early intervention that meets their needs, some of my students have been able to exit special education and join their peers in a general ed classroom curriculum when they transition into kindergarten.

My Project

Our preschoolers will begin this school year learning from home, I want to provide them with visuals and materials to engage them in learning. I believe that early literacy is very important to prepare our young learners. Some of our students are English Language Learners and some of our students have a speech or language impairment. I believe in early intervention and providing our students with the supports they need to succeed. The felt board will be used to tell stories with felt puppets that will engage students in listening to the story as well as comprehension. We will be utilizing the story wands to ask questions before, during and after read-alouds to enhance their critical thinking skills.
