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

My students are three years old and this is their first experience in school. They are among the first three year olds to attend 3K in the NYC school district. They come from a low income/high poverty neighborhood in the South Bronx, and have not been afforded the opportunities that children in more well to do neighborhoods are given.

It's my goal to provide a classroom for my students that is welcoming, offers opportunities for exploration, and prepares them for future academic success.

My Project

My 3K students love to explore. They are creative and are always excited to make new discoveries. Our 3K classroom's Discovery Science Center is in need of supplies to help us with our STEM based explorations.

Magnetic toys for our Discovery Science Center will help create new and exciting experiences that will encourage discovery through play for my students.

We'll use these magnets during class for teacher guided experiments, as well as for open ended play in our Science Discovery Center. Magnets encourage open ended play, demonstrate cause and effect, and introduce adding and subtraction among other benefits. These toys will motivate my young students to ask questions and seek out answers. It is my goal to help my students form a positive opinion of science during their early academic years. Donations of these supplies will assist me in this goal for my students.
