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 students are a vibrant group of young learners who represent cultures from all around the globe. We learn, play, and grow together in a very special school that includes 38 different languages! My students share a neighborhood but have unique histories that brought them together in our classroom.

I work with a group of very diverse learners who entered kindergarten with a variety of strengths, experiences, talents, stories, family structures, and challenges.

However, for all of them, I have the same goal; that is to love school and to feel excited about learning!

My Project

Year after year I have watched my students build their language, social, fine, and gross motor skills through play. As a kindergarten teacher, I try to provide them with as many opportunities as possible to use their imaginations, exercise their growing independence, and emulate the world around them. It is so important to provide the tools that lead to this type of work.

Learning through play is essential to young students and the play kitchen is always one of the most beloved parts of a kindergarten classroom.

All of my students have loved the feeling of being the grownup taking care of their family through pretend cooking.
