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

I teach Pre-Kindergarten. I think that Pre-K is a unique, very fantastic grade level. My youngest student is 3.9 years old, and my oldest is 4.9 years old! My children come from very low income homes. My kids speak many languages: Arabic, Bengali, Spanish, and English. We are part of NYC Mayor Mike DeBlasio's Pre-K initiative. This initiative guarantees that every four-year-old in New York City will have access to this life-changing educational opportunity, with roughly 70,000 children expected to enroll. It seems to be a great success. I am proud to be part of it. It has indeed provided my Pre-K students with a special, unforgettable opportunity to increase language skills, cognitive skills, and socio-emotional skills. It is amazing to see these children grow.

My Project

Who wouldn't want to play with these colorful, appealing materials?

The Create-A-Burger Sequencing Stacker looks like so much fun, I will have a hard time keeping MY hands off of it!

This creative toy will introduce my Pre-K students to sequencing in a fun and yummy way! New terms such as first, then, after, etc. will be accessed.

Nuts About Counting provides another fun way for my students to practice number recognition, sizes, and patterning. It is also helpful with hand eye coordination and fine motor control. Best of all, this is a toy that encourages solo play OR shared play.
