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 Kindergarten at a Title I public school where 100% of the students receive free lunch. Some of the students live under stressful circumstances and come from low income families. Their parents are immigrants so they are trying to adjust to a new culture and they also do not speak English.

Kindergarteners are curious, inquisitive and eager to learn.

Due to COVID-19, some parents have lost their jobs. Some of these children do not have any background knowledge. In spite of their circumstances, I will provide my students with the materials needed to be successful.

The pandemic has made teachers change their way of teaching and adapt to distance learning. Although we still don’t know the details about how we will be teaching beginning in August, whether it be distance learning, in person, or a blended model, one thing is certain... I am looking forward to teaching my students and seeing their academic growth!

My Project

Children learn by doing. Five year old children need concrete materials to build a solid foundation in early math concepts. This is very hard to do only using distance learning.

My kindergartners need hands-on math manipulatives to help them build their concrete reasoning (what they can see, hear, feel, and experience) into symbolic reasoning (drawings).

At school, I will model how to use these materials in whole group lessons. Then the students will use them in centers and individually. I will send the materials home for my students to practice the skills learned. Distance Learning: I will also use these materials through video conferences where the students will have a chance to ask any questions about the materials I sent home. The skills that they will acquire with these resources include number ID, counting, sorting, patterning, addition, subtraction, and graphing! My students will love these materials because they will add excitement to math practice, allow for cooperative learning, and build communication and problem solving skills.
