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 Project

I adore my kindergarten students for their resilience and curiosity. As mostly English language learners, they inspire me with their eagerness to learn and communicate despite linguistic challenges. Each resource plays a crucial role in their educational journey: dry erase markers and crayons foster creativity and language skills; phonics toys aid in literacy development; soap and essential oils create a calming atmosphere conducive to learning; beach and squeeze balls promote physical activity and stress relief; planters instill responsibility and connection to nature; stickers motivate and reinforce positive behavior. Together, these tools cater to their diverse needs, nurturing their academic, social, and emotional growth in a supportive environment.
