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

The best and easiest way to describe my students is that they are survivors. My class is a bilingual, prekindergarten classroom. I am charged with teaching them Spanish and all other subjects. I have a class of highly motivated and fully charged four-year-olds.

My children and their families were hit hard by Hurricane Harvey.

Many of my families had to be evacuated and our school sustained a lot of damage. We taught half of that school year at a relocation site.

We do not want to burden our parents for any type of extra supply after what they went through. We are happy to be back at our school, but we need some materials to replace what we lost during the hurricane. We hope these items would help our new students adjust to the huge changes in their little lives.

My Project

As an early childhood teacher of 23 years I used to have a large variety of books for my students to enjoy but then Hurricane Harvey came and went and took most of my books. I have been able to grow a small collection of Spanish books for read alouds but do not have enough books to share and place for my students at the workstations.

I would like for my students to have access to Spanish books on a daily basis not just in the library workstation.

The Spanish board books, paperback library, alphabet books, non fiction emergent readers, and emergent readers would all be placed in the various workstations for the students to read on a daily basis. This project would open up a whole new world for my students.
