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

I am traveling from one school to another this school year. I serve both schools. I will have approximately 40 students with my two classrooms combined for the 2019-2020 school year with a wide range of abilities, needs, and concerns. My students are in a low income/high poverty school in which more than 75% of the students receive free or reduced-price meals.

I know it is the end of the school year, but I am preparing for the next school year so that we may have a great start!

Despite some of the challenges they face in and around their environment, every year my students come to school excited, full of life, and eager to learn.

When children have a strong foundation of learning, they are able to stay on track to remain in school, graduate, and pursue post-secondary education and training to successfully transition into adulthood.

Children make this room their home for however long they stay and miss it dearly when they move on. No matter who enters through my classroom doors, they become part of our school family.

My Project

The requested resources will be utilized during the 2019-2020 school year daily during small groups.

SMALL GROUPS:

1. Technology/ESL: WATERFORD SMART START – TSW open and navigate through a digital learning application on iPads to develop language, literacy, math, social studies, health & physical development, creative arts, executive function, and cognition skills; acquire the English language using iPads.

2. Technology/Literacy: IMAGINE LEARNING ESPANOL – TSW open and navigate through a digital learning application on iPads to build Spanish literacy and language skills - phonics, comprehension and vocabulary development.

Children gain much from the use of technology. In Pre-K, they expand their ability to acquire information, problem-solving, and communication with others. They can enhance their learning through regular access and exposure to computers and related technology. Children use engaging, age-appropriate, and challenging learning applications, programs, and websites to extend their knowledge and to enrich their learning of curriculum content and concepts. These technologies serve as important learning tools and are integrated throughout the instructional program. Providing access to a variety of technologies is essential in the development of 21st-century skills that children need to learn.
