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 the greatest group of five and six-year-olds. With high energy levels and enthusiasm, my class always comes to school so eager to learn. My class is very diverse with some families being more fortunate than others.

The twenty-eight students in my class come from varying walks of life, but together we have created one community.

Kindergarten is often my students' first year of school. It is so crucial to build their excitement toward learning and encourage them to achieve great things in the classroom.

My Project

My students have been so eager to receive their weekly instruction through Google Classroom. It is great to see so many families coming together to help support the online learning efforts teachers are sending to families all over. Finding engaging resources that also lend themselves to differentiation has been difficult and time-consuming. Teachers Pay Teachers is a great spot to find resources that are not only highly engaging for students but also allow for differentiating instruction to our diverse groups of students. This gift card would allow me to purchase engaging digital resources to keep my scholars learning and having fun during this pandemic. Thank you for your support.
