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

Clifford the Big Red Dog has always been a favorite character for children. I want my students to have the opportunity to connect with him throughout the year in an age and thematically appropriate magazine that they can take home too.

I teach Pre-K in an inner city school next to government funded housing.

About half of the class receives free lunch. Our class is very diverse ethnically, religiously, and economically. They are engaging students who thirst to learn more. The children range in abilities from developing secure skill levels.

My Project

Clifford the Big Red Dog Magazine reports on relevant Pre-K themes throughout the year. It gives the children an opportunity to connect fiction and non-fiction. The children find Clifford engaging, so they will be drawn to reading the magazines. The magazines are at an age appropriate level so children will be able to "read" it without being frustrated. Through this magazine they will be able to develop pre-reading skills, oral language, and phonological awareness. They will learn age appropriate scientific knowledge, as well as Social studies skills. They have an opportunity to complete puzzles. Best of all they keep the magazine and reread it as often as they'd like, thus reinforcing the skills in that particular issue. They will want to read more and will not count out periodicals in their future.

Pre-K is the time where children learn social skills as well as many other skills through play.

Clifford the Big Red Dog Magazine is another way to learn through play. It is fun and engaging while they learn about the world around them. The children will gain skills that they will use for the rest of their lives through this great magazine.
