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.
As I teach Pre-K, this is the first year of school for the majority of my students. As many of my students come into the school year nervous and uneasy, I want to provide a classroom and environment that is warm, inviting, engaging and safe!
Our principal, the teachers, and the entire school community have turned our school from a "failing" school into a school on the rise.
This year, our school will be a showcase school not just to those schools in our district but to others located throughout New York City.
Many of my students come from incredibly challenging homes. Ninety-nine percent of the school receives free lunch, and many of our students live in homeless shelters, foster homes, or just have trouble making ends meet. Despite these challenges, my students love to learn and love to be at school. With these materials, I feel as though my students will come into a classroom they can call home for the year.
My Project
My students come into a brand new school year nervous, anxious and do not know what to expect. I want to be sure my classroom is fully stocked with all materials my students need to be successful. Paint, Dot-Dot Art, Sensory Sand are things my students may have never personally explored! In my Pre-K classroom my students do art projects, science projects, explore in a sand/water table, and build all in one room. These materials will help my students in our play based and exploratory classroom. My students learn by playing. Items such as painting, play dough, kinetic sand etc bring out so much creativity and language! It is an amazing feeling to be able to provide my students with every opportunity they deserve! The look on their faces when they took play dough or sensory sand for the first time is priceless! Please help give my students this amazing first-time experience.
