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
My transitional Kindergarten class in composed of mainly Hispanic and a few African American students. My students are either immigrant students or the first generation born here in the U.S., with the exception of a few. My students are eager to learn about themselves and also about their environment. Students all receive free meals. Most of our students are economically disadvantaged.
Our school is located in a rough neighborhood.
Our students feel safe when they are in school. Transitional Kindergarten is a year where students have the opportunity to develop, not only emotionally or socially but academically as well. It is truly a great start to an excellent education.
My Project
Providing transitional Kindergarten with fine motors skills is essential for their development as early learners. Giving my students the opportunity to a have hands-on way to help them master the lines and curves that form uppercase letters is vital to be successful on letter formation. It also helps them develop skills in letter recognition, letter building, and fine motor development. The Magnetic Color Maze is an amazing hands-on way to explore the colors. It will help my students develop color recognition and also fine motor control. It also builds on organizational skills. The Find the Letter Activity Center will allow the students the opportunity to explore letters as they follow simple prompts on the activity cards to search for the letters in a sensory chest.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
