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

Our school is filled with bright, talented, courageous, and curious learners. My students love to learn and explore our world! As a Title I school, we are over 44% English Language Learners (ELL), with all of our students receiving free breakfast and lunch and 11% of our children identifying as homeless. Many students are new to our country or our area and about 1/3 move during the school year. Though some of our students face daunting challenges, they are eager to learn, grow, and experiment.

Our students are funny, bright, imaginative, and motivated.

Many are raised in single-parent homes and deal with housing crises due to high rental rates and seasonal shortages. Though we all live within minutes of the beach, many have never been on a boat. Many students experience a variety of hardships, yet they are excited to learn and eager to grow in confidence in their ability to become star students!

My goal is to help increase my students' wonder and engagement in the world around them by creating strong, interesting, thoughtful lessons, and projects which make learning exciting! As their first year in public school, I am honored to share the beginning of their educational journey!

My Project

My students are so excited to start their first day of school! Throughout the year, we emphasize the importance of reading at home! Many students have few books at home and so this beginning-of-the-year gift is the perfect way to help build their home library!

The Day the Crayons Quit is an imaginative story about how each color crayon is unique and serves a purpose, but how sometimes, like crayons, we may not always feel appreciated by the people around us.

This is an amazing book to begin exploring feelings and emotions such as loneliness, jealousy, confidence, surprise and many more! Each crayon tells the little boy how it feels in a funny, creative way. It begins conversations and is a great read-aloud for parents at home.

I love beginning the journey of kindergarten with my students and thank you for the opportunity to share my love of books with my kinders!
