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 kindergarten students are enthusiastic learners. They enjoy reading their picture books and counting their math collections, especially when the collections are over 100 objects. My students have South Los Angeles roots. Most students are eligible for the free lunch program. Most of my students' primary language is Spanish, and thus they are English language learners. My students' first formal educational experience is in my kindergarten class, and I embrace it.
My students' literacy path is underway.
In my class, literacy takes many forms. My students are developing their digital and technological literacy, cultural and multicultural literacy, and, of course, reading, writing, math literacy. In my class, I integrate hands on activities to engage and strengthen my students’ skills.
My Project
The printer cartridges, learning center, sensory activities, and multi-leveled reading books are to meet the needs of my students as they progress in their early literacy and mathematical continuum. The printer cartridges will be used to print high-interest literacy and mathematical games in color. Moreover, the mathematical activities and games that will be made will enable my students to learn number identification, learn how to count, and develop mathematical problem solving. The selected literacy activities will assist my students in learning early literacy skills; for example, letter identification, sounds, and word building. In addition, students will have exposure to sight words and sight word phrases. This exposure will assist in composing and reading simple sentences with sight words.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
