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

This year I will be teaching Pre-K students. These smart little learners will come into the class full of curiosity for the new experiences they will explore each day. I teach in a Title I school in New York City and the students come from many diverse and economic backgrounds. Some of my students are from South America, Asia, and Europe.

These little learners will come to school eager to explore, play, learn, and work together.

I want the students in my class to get excited about working together, sharing ideas, and doing fun class projects.

I really try to make our classroom like a family unit which is caring, nurturing, and respectful. I want my young smart learners to appreciate each other and their learning environment from the very start.

My Project

Pre K center time is where the true learning and exploring happens. This project will give our young learners access to the materials they need to express their creativity. Our art center is in need of organization caddies to keep the drawing materials. This will help our young learners have easy access to their drawing supplies. My students are so excited about painting unfortunately our classroom does not have a sink or access to water so painting has been challenging. Here is where the kwik stix tempera painters will come in handy. Our young students will be so excited to have another option to paint. Expressing creativity in the art center is a very important part of our Pre K curriculum. Learning our ABC’s is also a big part of the Pre K learning experience. The magnetic letters will help them explore their letters and have fun at the same time. We all thank you in advance for helping us have an amazing and successful year.
