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 prekindergarten students are very curious and enthusiastic! They enter my classroom every day excited and eager to learn. They are constantly asking questions, making discoveries, and trying to make sense of the world around them.
My prekindergarten students attend a Title I school in a large urban district.
All of the students at the school qualify for the Federal Free Lunch Program. The students are predominately Latino and the majority of them are English Language Learners. Despite their disadvantaged background, my students are enthusiastic children who enter my classroom every day ready to learn.
My Project
My young learners are learning how to share, take turns and get along with each other. The social-emotional board books as well as the Best Behavior books will encourage my students to communicate and work cooperatively with one another. These are very important skills for students in early childhood classrooms to develop.
With the help of these board books, I will be able to read about a wide array of social-emotional topics: manners, clean-up time, listening, sharing, etc.
All of these skills are important in the lives of young children. I want these book collections for my students to encourage positive behavior.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
