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

These are unprecedented and scary times for all of us, but imagine how our students and parents feel as a result of the school closures and now being a full day in class. As is, my preschool special needs students are having a difficult time adjusting to their new norm. My students are energetic and ready to learn every day they come to school.

My preschool students with special needs will utilize an enormous amount of hands-on, play-based materials to learn.

My students and I have embarked on a social distance learning journey in school! I am committed to continuing to provide my students with the necessary tools they will need in their educational journey.

My Project

Our way of teaching has changed due to COVID-19. We have to continuously look for ways to reach our students on a daily basis. This has been so hard on my preschool Special Education students and their families. My students love having fun and learning at the same time. My students thrive with hands on materials and it helps foster their creativity.

These materials will ensure equitable and inclusive creativity and education for all and be used to foster their minds, enhance their creativity and create things using their imagination while distance learning continues to take place.

Arts and crafts are fun and what better way than to do them together at a safe distance! My students will be learning about pets/animals and what better way to learn than by having arts and crafts materials to make their own animals and share with their peers. They will get to create an animal along with their habitat and share common interests with their peers. I cannot think of a better way for my students to learn about pets and what they need to survive than by creating new things with their own materials to share out loud.

This pandemic has shown the need for accessibility and opportunity for all students. All students need to be setup for success.
