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 30 special education Pre-K students. These are some of the greatest and most courageous students. They attend school in one of the highest poverty districts in the state. Yet, with multiple disabilities and adversities, that does not dissuade them in any way in learning.
They know their teachers care, but we lack the full resources to teach them to their fullest extent.
My students are just beginning life. They deserve a break too. Will you please help them? Thanks! We all really appreciate your support.
My Project
Puzzles have been around for generations. They are beloved by all ages. However, they are essential for Pre-K students! There are so many advantages in children working with puzzles. Consider the following: puzzles are a self-correcting learning tool. Students learn to do for themselves and create independence!
Language Skills: puzzles offer children an opportunity to develop many language skills by learning letters and letter sounds!
In addition, puzzles help students with math skills. Puzzles teach children several basic math concepts to include numbers, counting, sequencing, and shapes. Moreover, puzzles help with eye-hand coordination. Finally, puzzles are fun! Students love to build and create things. The puzzle is the perfect activity to complement that. Please, help my students get some new puzzles!
