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 Project

I have a deep affection for my kindergarten students, who never fail to fill the classroom with their boundless enthusiasm, genuine curiosity, and infectious joy. Their unbridled love for learning is truly inspiring. To nurture their growth and make education a fun-filled experience, I utilize various resources that align with their developmental needs. Engaging educational activities encourage them to explore, interact, and learn through play, turning every lesson into an adventure.

Most of my requested supplies would help my students learn through play and foster organization skills.

The stacking stools will be used for small group intervention and the headphones will be used for everyday computer use on our individualized math and ELA programs. Thank you for taking the time to help out kindergarten classroom to create a safe, fun, and caring learning environment.
