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 attend a Title I school and are from diverse ethnic/cultural backgrounds, namely Bangladeshi, Chinese, Hispanic, and French. 95% of them are Latino and African American. The rest are sparsely mixed with other ethnicities. In my classroom, there are students with a range of disabilities, including intellectual disabilities, emotional disturbance, autism spectrum disorder and specific learning disabilities.

My students have very creative little minds!

They might not be able to write in the traditional sense but they are very skilled at expressing their thoughts and ideas through drawing.

During writing workshop, they like to get really lost in their work by drawing very detailed depictions of their stories. They are allowed free rein to papers, markers, crayons, pens, and pencils; any tool that will bring their imagination to life.

My Project

Fostering kids creativity helps them to develop mentally, emotionally, and socially. These materials will help to continue bringing out the creativity in my students. During centers and independent work times, students will have the opportunity to paint, draw, doodle, make collages and much more!

When students are given the opportunity to hone their skills and feel good at what they are creating, it helps to boost their self confidence.

They then realize that its OK to make mistakes and when they do, they are able to invent new ways of thinking which extends beyond the basic subjects and the classroom.

The materials I'm requesting will really help to get their creative juices flowing.
