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 curious, creative, and active! They come to school each day full of energy and with an eagerness to learn. My classroom is a safe space where the students are able to both learn and engage with one another-specifically during Center time.

The growth that the students show by the end of the school year is what inspires me the most.

They learn so much, so quickly!! I have so many ideas that can make this learning come to life this school year!

My Project

My hope is to provide a variety of learning activities all throughout our Kindergarten year. With these items in our class during center time...GROWTH is bound to occur! The activities that I hope to receive allow students to have the learning right at their fingertips during our Math and Literacy Centers. They will be able to see and manipulate the activities! The Touch and Read CVC Word Match, Match and Sort Phonics Quickies, and Three Letter Word Building activities are just a few of the materials we will use in our literacy centers to get students engaged and learning. Students will be learning to count and identify numbers using the Magnetic Numbers and Counters.

They will also learn to form numbers, form letters, recognize sounds in words, build words, and so much more using the listed materials.

We will also use the Help Yourself Book Bins to organize our library and to organize our markers and crayons within our tables. These activities will certainly help us master new skills. I hope that you can help make my vision come to life with the purchase of these classroom activities!
