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 class is full of thirty energetic Transitional Kindergarten (TK) and Kindergarten students in a Charter School setting. Our school includes grades from TK to sixth grade. We meet together five days a week. All students are encouraged to make personal goals that they work on at school and at home with parents. They love working with technology in our classroom. We celebrate each student as they achieve their personal goals at their own individual pace. My students feel encouraged and supported in our community while contributing to their own learning pathway.
My Project
Our school is a small charter school. We do have a playground, but there is only a black top no grass. We call it a peaceful playground. We teach our students how to play appropriate games on the blacktop that are fun but safe. We are anxious to introduce a larger variety of things that they can do on the blacktop.
We need more activities like the beginner basketball sets and the ball catching cups to keep our students active during recess.
Our ninety students in our transitional kindergarten through third grade would just love to use these two new games on our peaceful playground.
More than half of students from low‑income households
