Celebrating 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 consists of different things that help to build the foundation for our room. I am asking for playdough as it is such a wonderful sensory material that all of the students can benefit from using. With the current use of tablets and touchscreen technology many of my students do not have strong hand muscles. They are able to strengthen their hands by kneading and rolling playdough, which gives them strong fine motor skills when they work with crayons and pencils. I'm asking for a set of hollow blocks because they are big and heavy. We have 2 sets and I would like to complete the block area with a third. The large blocks have become a favorite activity in the room. The additional set will bring height to our ever expanding city of blocks. The headphones will let us do our limited computer work, while helping to keep the classroom noise level down. The math and literacy center materials also have fine motor skills embedded into the manipulatives. These will bring variety and differentiation to our centers.
All of these materials will help me meet the children at their varied ability levels.
I typically have a range of abilities in my room, and the children's needs can vary from one day to another. My hope each . year is to meet the children where they are and to get them prepared to be successful in their future K5 year and beyond.
