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

Sitting on bottoms is overrated. My students learn from doing, not just watching and listening. My students are very active, and it is hard for them to sit still and just listen to lessons. When lessons are delivered through games, fun activities, and fun stories, they love it and learn much, much more.

I have fourteen girls and ten boys who are all precious and beautiful.

Even though they come from a Title I school, they all have the potential to excel in academics, graduate from college, and have very successful careers. I am the teacher who needs to give them a strong foundation in math, science, PE, visual arts, music, social studies, reading, and writing to make sure their career dreams come true.

My Project

The letter crayons word building centers will be a colorful way to introduce sounding out and reading and writing simple words to my students!

My students will choose a card with a 3 letter word such as bus or cat on one side, and a matching image on the other side, and then snap the plastic chunky letter crayons into the tough plastic crayon box, to spell the word one letter at a time.

This project will improve my students' lives for the better by helping them learn academic skills through play and exploration.

This keeps them attentive to the instruction and they enjoy it much more then sitting quietly through a lesson. Learning the academic concepts that they need for a strong academic foundation through active learning activities, will give these 24 little students with 1 teacher, the boost they need, so they will go to college and graduate and have great careers!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
