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

Kindergarten is the fun, curious, interactive, social foundation of young innovative minds. These brilliant curious minds attend this elementary school located in an urban area. Ninety-five percent of the students are economically disadvantaged and receive free/reduced lunch, and the surrounding neighborhood consists of duplex apartment complexes and single-family homes.

The community is mostly of Hispanic and African-American descent.

I teach 28 active, curious, little minds. Parental involvement in my class is low because many parents work throughout the day. My students get very excited when they see something new to use. I love their look of wonder when I teach! With their curiosity, excitement and eagerness to learn, my students are always ready to engage in different hands-on learning centers activities independently.

As soon as my students start learning how to use the materials at centers, their little eyes start twinkling because they have build confidence in knowing that they are able to work independently or with a group. I want them to become independent life long learners with these center activities.

My Project

The materials requested will help my students with their writing skills. The Dot-o-Dot Rainbow Art will help them dab the sight words for identification. Once they are able to identify the sight words, they will be able to write them in their stories. The pencil grips will help my struggling students hold the pencil correctly.

By donating to our project, you will help my students improve their writing skills and writing abilities to become independent lifelong learners.

Writing is fun and these materials will help them get excited about writing.
