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 live in a low socioeconomic and often rough area of Los Angeles. Although they do not live in the best of neighborhoods, I strive to give them the best education for a brighter future.

My students are 48 energetic, inquisitive, smart 5-6-year-old students from diverse backgrounds in the dual language program.

They consist of 50% English Language Learners with a Latino background and 50% English only students with Latino and African American backgrounds. I love that my students are diverse in their backgrounds and in their Spanish abilities. They are able to learn from each other as they begin their journey into bi-literacy and bilingualism.

My Project

The items I am requesting will help me create a resource folder for students to use for study, during asynchronous work, and during synchronous class with the teacher. I know they will help keep my kids, learning, and engaged during our time online. I will be able to use these items to make templates of ten frames, letter names/sounds, number spinners, number charts, picture word book for writing, and so much more. These resources and counters will help to engage my kids in our lessons online. They will help develop their literacy, writing, & math skills.
