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 kindergarten classroom is an inspirational group of young learners from diverse background with a wide range of abilities and life pursuits. Some of my students are currently learning to read and write, while others are beginning to conceptualize numeracy and connect counting to cardinality. My classroom loves to play new games, and dance, and eat peaches. They love eating fruits!

In my classroom (and in my elementary school), we build a safe community for educators and students to engage in learning "outside of the box." We are part of a larger school district in our nation's capitol.

We celebrate each other throughout the day in our small group activities, reading and math stations, and work towards developing academic skills in various ways to meet the needs of every student. We are a team.

My Project

My students will share seven Amazon Fire Tablets to use as a technology resource during our small group activity. We will have three rotations. Each individual student will work on online modules with an emphasis on mathematics and literacy. The software and applications include STMath, Starfall, and make use of Clever Badges for easy log ins for students.

The children will have the opportunity to use technology as an interactive learning tool that can boost their STEM education.

They will conceptualize numeracy and start connecting counting to cardinality. Ultimately, it is my goal and my school's mission to well prepare each student with 21st century skills.
