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

Teaching in a low-income/high poverty school district provides many challenges. The students in my classroom come from very diverse backgrounds but they have one thing in common...their thirst for learning in a nurturing and developmentally appropriate environment. They desire an environment that provides ample opportunities for active learning to take place while they are challenged and explore through the use of hands-on activities.

We provide rigorous instruction that enables our children to achieve academic excellence while building the social and emotional skills needed to become well-rounded individuals.

My goal is to offer my students experiences that they would not ordinarily be exposed to. I strive to provide them with hands-on materials that will inspire them to interact, investigate and explore. They love books, technology, and manipulating the environment through their senses. Together we make learning fun and successful.

My Project

As I venture my new normal and explore virtual learning with my young students, I look for a variety of ways to reach out to them and enhance their learning using limited visuals.

I strive to provide ideas and lessons that will inspire them to interact, investigate and explore at home.

The use of the magnetic board and magnetic materials will assist me in reaching my students at home during these trying times. Visuals are a must with our preschool students as we encourage the development of their receptive and expressive oral language skills as well as their mathematical logical reasoning skills.

The use of magnetic letters, numbers, pictures and counters will allow our students to develop higher order thinking and language skills.
