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 Students
I have a class of 25 amazing little kindergarteners, T-Kers, and first graders who have the world in their grasps. They all love learning and we do the best we can with the little we have. A lot of kiddos have never been in a classroom before. Covid closed down preschools, daycares and schools in our area.
I am a first year teacher and I have my sights and goals to make learning fun for them since they missed out on so much already.
I am a strong believer in personalized learning which is catered to each individual child. The school site I work at is small but this allows students to become familiar with each other in the school system. The students in the classroom come from various backgrounds in which some live with family members other than their mom and dad, some are considered homeless, some can barely afford basic needs of survival but most students are well cared for and provided food and shelter. I want my students to love to come to school, so we do lots of hands on activities, crafts, and movement learning!
My Project
I am requesting a Build a Business Financial Literacy kit which will allow me to teach my students how to build a business through financial literacy. Students are never to young to learn about buying and selling items, like at the grocery store. I want to teach them using this resource so learning is hands on and fun to learn. Students will also be able to learn about money and coins through this resource.
Having three registers and three different baskets of food allows more students to play at once and allows them to work and learn together through play.
