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 a mixed population of Hispanic, Native Americans, African Americans, and Caucasian. We are a Title I elementary school with 100% free breakfast and lunch. Many of our students come to school in the same clothes every day. Our students do not have an opportunity to experience, extracurricular activities at home or outside of school. We do our best to bring current educational trends to our school to benefit our students.

My students will be experiencing a "2 Way" school next year, learning 2 languages with a spanish and english instructor every day!

We would like a classroom carpet that would incorporate both spanish and english translations for alphabet, color and common words, and numbers.

My Project

Our pre K and Kindergarten classrooms will become a "2 Way" school in that each regular classroom teacher will have a Spanish speaking teacher partner! Students will learn Spanish and English every day! I am asking for a bilingual carpet for my classroom to add to the 2 way student experience! Not only will it serve as a "gathering place" for classroom meetings and instruction - it will be used as a learning tool. Spanish and English letters, words, and numbers on the carpet can be used as a writing AND game center.

We are excited to be a part of this program and want to embrace the set up of the classroom by providing all we can to make this a success for all our students!
