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 classroom is comprised of a highly-diverse group of students ages 3-5 from Chicago. Many of them have never been to school, or even around other children their age before. The goal of our program is to support these students to acquire emotional, social, physical, cognitive and academic skills to help them thrive. We use a play-based, student centered approach to learning that allows for a great deal of choice and flexibility in the learning environment.
All my students are natural-born learners who arrive with unbounded curiosity and passion for inquiry.
My job is to help direct those drives into skills and behaviors that will help them for a lifetime.
My Project
These are items I need to give to families to have at home so their child's preschool experience can be as engaging as possible.
We know children learn the best when they have hands-on experiences, and these items will help us create more hands on learning opportunities while they are joining us virtually from home.
We will use the rhythm sticks to tap out the beat and practice following directions. We will make art so children develop cognitive skills and fine motor skills. Other materials will help us as we become more aware of letters and other symbols.
Half of students from low‑income households
