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 are early childhood learners in the Pre-Kindergarten program. These young learners are active and eager children that are experiencing the classroom for the first time.

They are children who are full of energy and are curious about the world around them.

This year has been especially difficult because they are missing the personal aspect of learning. Nevertheless, they are making great strides in their learning environment.

My Project

A super hero drawstring backpack with various items to be used for distance learning will be given to each child. These items will help give my students an enjoyable experience during the week of the young child. My students are five year olds and they have difficulty staying on task throughout their online learning time. The bag of goodies will encourage them in their online education.

It is important for Pre- kindergarten children to develop their fine and gross motor skills to ensure their academic success in writing and reading in the future.

The playdough, coloring activity book, watercolor set, and the other items will help them develop these important skills. Please help me, help my students. They are young children and need that extra fun in their lives. They are already missing a lot and I would like to give them a little spark of encouragement and love during the week of the young child. Help me celebrate these young learners during their special week.
