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 Project

I am a first year kindergarten teacher looking to provide my students with some hands-on resources to help create a solid foundation for academic success now and for years to come. Data has shown that there are some huge skill gaps in the areas of math and reading coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. Studies have shown that math skills and knowledge are the leading indicator for later academic success. It is my wish to provide my students with fun, hands-on manipulatives to help enhance the learning of necessary foundational skills that lead to later academic success.
