Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

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

My students are four-year-olds with and without varying special needs. Students are identified through the Child Find process and are given the opportunity to access the preschool setting to provide a foundation for the rest of their learning careers.

I provide an individualized, developmentally appropriate, multi-modal approach to learning with an emphasis on communication, emergent academic skills, and development of the whole child through meaningful play.

Students benefit from having access to a variety of therapists (OT, PT, SLP, and Social Worker), as well as a special education teacher.

My Project

This project allows my preschoolers the opportunity to broaden and enrich their natural curiosity and love of learning through intriguing open-ended art projects with clay, natural materials, loose parts and expressing themselves through paint.

We will be creating a classroom atelier, or art studio, for students to access daily.

Students will be supported as they use the high-quality materials to explore, describe, create and recreate. In our atelier the possibilities are endless.

“Creativity seems to emerge from multiple experiences, coupled with a well-supported development of personal resources, including a sense of freedom to venture beyond the known.” Loris Malaguzzi, The Hundred Languages of Children.
