My students need a variety of language arts resources for workstations and whole-group instruction. Many of our materials were lost during Hurricane Harvey and my kids need these resources to learn how to read.
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
The best and easiest way to describe my students is that they are survivors. My class is a dual language kindergarten classroom, and I am charged with teaching them Spanish, language arts, and math. I will have two classes, each consisting of 21 highly motivated and fully charged five-year-olds. My children and their families have been hit hard by Hurricane Harvey. Many of my families had to be evacuated, and our school sustained a lot of damage. We were teaching at a relocation site with the basics for 4 months. We cannot ask our parents for any type of supply after what they went through. My kids are happy to be back at their school, but we need some materials to replace what we lost during the hurricane. We hope these items would help my students adjust to yet another move and huge change in their little lives.
My Project
I have been teaching for over 20 years and lost most of my resources during hurricane Harvey. We are finally back at our home school but realize we need more than just tables and chairs to teach. I need resources for whole group instruction, small group instruction and workstations.
My students deserve to have a variety of materials to choose from to learn and play.
The materials I have requested in this project are interactive, fun, and ready to use which is very helpful for teacher. The first little readers, lakeshore rhyming books, language folder games, word work folder games, phonics and word recognition folder games will all be used for small group instruction. The rest of the materials in this project will be used for whole group instruction and workstations. The phonemic awareness instant learning centers, can do reading games, phonemic awareness boxes, magnetic fishing poles, build a word houses, write and wipe sight word practice cards, learning letters activity centers, CVC word work center, creating sight word sentences center, 3 and 4 letter word building puzzles, and write and wipe alphabet practice cards will all be perfect for workstations. My kids will be ready to read in no time thanks to your donation!
