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

This kindergarten class is full of incredible students. For many, this is their first time ever in a structured classroom environment, and it is also their first exposure to the English language. They come from all over the world providing diversity, allowing us to celebrate our similarities and differences. My students are enthusiastic, curious, caring, and creative. These students are members of a Title I urban school in Richmond, CA, a school where all students qualify for the free breakfast and free lunch program.

My Project

Our students must keep up with the latest advancements in education to spark an interest in reading, math, and writing. Education is changing at a rapid speed, and one of those changes is the use of technology. Students in our classroom love having access to technology to help enhance their learning. However, we need to make sure they have the appropriate resources to help them grow as learners.

In the past our school has had access to Starfall and it has made a huge difference with students in the lower grades, english language learners, and our newcomers!

It has allow student to have an opportunity to continue learning and practicing their letter names and sounds, phonemic awareness, reading, math and much more!

Help our students have access to this amazing website that has help enhance their learning in the past and allows them to practice using computers and/or tablets as early as kindergarten!
