My Project

My students are all unique and diverse. Many of them are non-speakers, but that doesn't stop them from trying to communicate with us. We try our best to expose the students to different cultures and people through projects, celebrations, and books. Unfortunately, there is a lack of multicultural toys available relevant to their own backgrounds.

I want my students to explore multicultural foods, toys, and puzzles, through play.

I want them to connect to their own culture while in school. I also would like to bridge the gap between home and school for my students and their families.

Ms. Arty PS 77K @ PS 164 Cesar Rodney Grades PreK-2
